I recieved the following auction a few days ago
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&item=120028085046&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1
everything is in fantastic condition. it has two interesting things with it that I am not sure where they came from. the one I am most interested in is a large Dragon Warrior 4 world map that has a spell chart/ weapons and armor upgrade chart on the other side of it.
It can be seen in the first picture.
I have multiple other complete DW4's and none of them have this map and it doesnt fit inside the box. I also do not think it is a pullout of a magazine or guide as it shows no signs of that and is in flawless condition.
Anyone know where this map/ chart came from? not going to get rid of it, just curious on its origins.
Thanks!

All the DW games have special maps and inserts that go with them.  Some of them were mail order only, I had all the DW1 stuff from when I was a little kid, my mom mailed in for it all for my birthday.

As a side note, what kind of freaking job do you have?  You are either making hella good money, or going in debt asshole deep to a 10 ft Indian.  You spend more money anyone I have even seen except bunnyboy.

I own a store and I run an ebay business in conjuction with that. I am also very close with many local game store owners who sell off their doubles and rarities to me which I sell on ebay. Hard to explain. I really dont spend THAT much money. I only buy things if I consider them a fair price or a good deal.

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D i havent heard that saying in a long time

Oh I hate you, I totally bid against you in that auction!!

Have you tried asking the person who listed the game?

Yes. I emailed the seller and they still havent gotten back to me, dont think they will.

The map is from the Dragon Warrior IV Tokuma Strategy guide.

well that explains it :)
the odd thing is it shows no marks anywhere on any of the sides and is in absolutely flawless condition. was it a tear out map or was it just stuck inside with it?

The map is at the very end of the book. There are no perforations to tear it out. However it does seem that it would be easy to separate from the book.
