The other important change is where the pictures and information will be posted and your ability to get there.  If you are not a member of the Fragile World board, you may email me at the above address and request permission to join the board.  Unfortunately we have become interesting to some rather strange porn pushers and I have had to close the board. However, a simple request from a collector will get you onto the boards within a very short time.  The pictures and information will also be posted (MSN being in a good mood) on the HK World Board).  All this being said, here are the pieces being offered in this auction:
