     While someone may have bought Big Red's stock, it is very 
unlikely that he/she bought the copyrights to any of the Bard's 
Tale/gs releases. Unless a vendor has a stock of Bard's Tale/gs games 
in original boxes, Michael's best bet is to buy the games from a 
current owner. Some places to look are Apple II group swap meets and 
comp.sys.apple2.marketplace.
