I saw this on eBay, and as far as I know, this price is very cheap, should anyone want to purchase a game!
I bought mine at an EB Day for around £90!!! It's by far the most expensive EB item I've ever bought, and three family members put together to buy it for me!

And again the notice that the seller may not post to Germany... I just wonder what's wrong with it...

£90, good grief, Robert, had you had a lottery win then!
Looks a nice game, but not for me really. The only game I have is F.F cards! Somewhere lurking in the loft.

Not for me either, although I hope it goes to someone who'll look after it and enjoy it.
I'd love to have the Find-Outers card game, if it ever turns up in good condition, but I suspect it would cost me at least the proverbial arm and a leg!!

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

Re: Very cheap Famous Five Treasure Quest Game! :-)
I think you will 'find' the Find Outers game eventually, as it is around fairly often online. That's also something I personally paid a lot for...but it was a very good condition one. I think it cost me about £35, again at an EB Day. I love it because its drawn by Lilian Buchanan.
Julie - the Treasure Quest game I bought came around just at the right time when I had money to throw around...a student loan!!! Now I would never be so extravagant!
It was during those days that I bought most of my collection, or had it bought for me as presents. I have all the card games and I treasure them as they are such works of art - Noddy Happy Families, Noddy Snap, the two Famous Five card games, the Secret Seven card game, Faraway Tree card game and Find Out! card game. All well worth having!
