Panda's Box

So a real-life board game store moved into my neighborhood(-ish) recently, and I'm very excited.  Not so much for buying boardgames there though.  I can do online browsing and buying from home, where pants aren't required.  More like it's a nice place to meet up with people to play games occasionally.  Or to browse their game selection just for funsies (but with pants on). 
They also have, 4 different times now, had out-of-print games at non-ridiculous prices.  We picked up Strasbourg and The Ladies of Troyes off the clearance table for their less-than-MSRP-online-retailer-like prices despite their out-of-printness.  We also found Hansa Teutonica and the St. Petersburg Expansion for MSRP prices, which are still a good deal considering their out-of- printness.

They sell game acessories too. 
So there I was, browsing the store other day, wearing pants, and I stumbled upon this gem!

PANDA'S BOX!
It's a panda deck box!  It's supposed to hold your (insert collectible card game of choice here) cards, but with cute panda theme.

I don't play (insert collectible card game of choice here), but I bought it anyway.  It was only $3.50 and it was adorable.
I still put it to good use.  I don't have cards for it to hold, but I still have card sleeves that I use to protect cards for my board game that, you know, have cards.  So that's where they are stored now.

A card-protector protector.

Hello Panda!
In a couple of weeks we are heading to Indy for GenCon!  It's the biggest gaming convention in the U.S. and it's going to be awesome.  4 days of boardgames and cosplayers and boardgames and LARPers and boardgames and theme partys and GIANT BOARDGAMES!  It'll be great.  I may even post about it.  But only if you are nice to me.

PEEK-A-BOO!!!!
