I've been at work in my auction house, and since we're probably due to leave soon, I thought I'd open my stores for anyone who wants to own a historical, multi-million dollar weapon or artifact.

I can't take it all with me.

	Got anything from the 18th century? Maybe around 1717? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	From 1717 specifically, I have a French Infantry Flintlock Musket and a Japanese Naginata. But if you were looking for anything specific, I could get my hands on it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nothing specific, really. ~~Unless your auction house deals in old robes~~ Mostly just curious what you might have from -- I've heard it called the Golden Age of Piracy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Items from that era always fetch a pretty penny ~~because my buyers like to pretend that they're pirates and like to wave a sword around~~. It probably would be quicker for you to drop by. It's your era, you'd be familiar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can do that, thanks. I don't get homesick often, but it'd be nice to have a few familiar things around. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, a few ship miniatures ought to help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	uncagedcaptain 2022-08-14 05:57 am UTC (link)
	You have ship models? Don't suppose you have any sextants or astrolabes as well? I'm sure it's too much to wish for something from the age of space travel. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A naginata?? Do you have any other Japanese weapons? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	helstrom_ 2022-08-14 05:11 am UTC (link)
	If you're looking for a katana, I have a few. The overseas market is [...] lacking here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	19_53_88 2022-08-14 05:15 am UTC (link)
	I've got a katana, though a backup might be a good idea. Oh and if you have any cleaning supplies or anything too because I didn't have that stuff with me when I got here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	helstrom_ 2022-08-14 05:23 am UTC (link)
	You need to come over and pick your katana. And maybe afterwards, I'll feel prepared to part with some of my cleaning supplies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	19_53_88 2022-08-14 05:48 am UTC (link)
	Awesome. I did already pick up some substitutes so it's not like it's super super important but I like to have the real thing if I can. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What do you have in archery? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	helstrom_ 2022-08-14 06:08 am UTC (link)
	Medieval replicas of Greek and Mongolian bows, and Justin Huish's bow from the 1996 Olympics. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thingsandarrows 2022-08-14 06:12 am UTC (link)
	Aw shit. I will give you 37.50 in this place money for a Mongolian recurve. Those things are fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wow, you've made me a rich woman. Just take it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thingsandarrows 2022-08-14 07:02 am UTC (link)
	Yeah I'll swing by. Maybe look at hour small firearms selection too while I'm by? How'd you wind this sweet gig? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Be my guest. It's not like I'm keeping this place. In my world, I own an auction in San Francisco. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Anything from ancient Egypt ? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Last I checked, I had a game of Senet. Anything you're looking for in particular? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	summon_the_suit 2022-08-14 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	Not sure what that is. It's not for me, it's for Steven. He's the Egyptian buff. I wanted to get him a gift for when he returns at the reset. Do you think that game would be a cool gift? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	helstrom_ 2022-08-14 04:07 pm UTC (link)
	Senet is one of the oldest board games, which only fell out of favor when the Romans showed up. This particular set was owned by a royal scribe who served Sahure. He'll like it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	summon_the_suit 2022-08-14 04:22 pm UTC (link)
	Sounds perfect. I'm sure he'll go nuts over it. Probably will recognize the name, too. [...] Anything pertaining to the Egyptian gods? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	helstrom_ 2022-08-14 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	On the off chance that it doesn't ring a bell, tell him fifth Dynasty. Again, specifics would help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
