[Torg] WEG looking for a buyer

[Scott Palter]

Per Eric's various posts he seems not set up for direct to consumer sales and not to like that side of the business [Eric, if I misunderstand my apologies - this is NOT another Dana troll].  Whereas we live on such and are set up accordingly down to POD facilities.

  If there is they aren't selling it. To buy the books you have to go to amazon, or ebay, or something similair. Or hope your local store has a copy. Sadly, mine doesn't.

    I thought there was still inventory on the old books.

      While it saddens me that the company that created such a Grand and Epic game would go under, I am also hopeful that whomever buys the company will get on that 2nd Edition they promised a while ago, or at least reprint the old books. Hell, if I had the money I'd buy the company myself just so I could get the books back out there. Of course, if I had that kind of money I could just buy the books off ebay or amazon, but that's not the point.

        Per private email with Eric he seems serious.  Further I am not in a position to say.

          Here's the text, in its entirety:

          On the heels of a failed product launch in March, an inability to  refund consumers their money for preorders of said product, and a  subsequent consumer backlash, West End Games is officially on the  block. After posting a scathing condemnation of RPGnet, Dana  Jorgensen, and RPG hobbyists in general (http://forum.rpg.net/showpost.php?p=9139148&postcount=173 ), the current owner of West End Games (Eric Gibson) announced on his  own forums (http://www.westendgames.com/forum/showpost.php?p=32452&postcount=1 ) that he is selling the entire company because he is "tired of all  the work for negative reward".

          Shit.
