1) Send $25 US dollars and a SASE to:

Todd M. Behringer
W299 N5449 Arrow Ct.
Hartland,WI 53029 USA

I'd be more than happy to send you a nerps in return! :^)

2) Otherwise you can send a SASE to FASA with NERPS in the address and if
they have any left, they'll send you one! (Personally, I'd choose option
#1)

Todd, I'm still waiting, and I sent my payment off on the 9th!
Gee...

Maybe I should have sent A Self Addressed Stamped Envelope to FASA instead, at

FASA-NERPs

Well, I tell you what! Since your such a nice guy, I'll cut you a deal! You
send me $45 US Dollars and I'll send you not ONE BUT TWO Nerps! Act now
quantities are limited. And if you are one of the first ten idiots, I mean
buyers, I'll throw in your very own copy of this month's Scrye (insert cards
excluded). AND THATS NOT ALL!!! If you are one of the first five people to
order, I'll throw in a copy of this month's Inquest magazine (insert cards
excluded). BUT WAIT, THERES MORE!!!! If you are the first person to buy this
ripoff, i mean deal, I'll include not ONE, not TWO, not three, But FOUR common
cards of your choice. Act now, because tomorrow this offer will cost 10 dollars
more, and you won't get as much!

For the newer list members, here's the FASA offer again (as posted to
their site 9/9/97):

~~~~~~~~~~

Nerps Card Made Available!

Now that the Shadowrun Trading Card Game is in the stores and the card
lists have been made available, there is a lot of interest in
obtaining the NERPS promo card. While we initially planned to give the
NERPS card away only at conventions or special demos, your numerous
requests have convinced us to reconsider this idea.

If you send a self-addressed, stamped envelope (International
customers please send an International Reply Coupon) to :

FASA-NERPs
1100 W. Cermak B305
Chicago, Il USA 60608

We will send you a NERPS card. Supplies are limited, so we will only
send one card per request. The Nerps card will also be available from
our representatives at the following sites:

Third Eye Game Store-Chicago, Il, Sept. 27 (3 pm. -7 pm)
Essen Game Fair-Essen, Germany, Oct. 23-26
RockCon-Rockford, IL, Nov. 1-2
Orccon-Los Angeles, CA, Feb. 13-15

These are the only locations that are currently scheduled, though the
above list will almost certainly expand. Thank you for your support of
the Shadowrun TCG- we hope you are having fun with it!!!

-FASA

Hmm well your card hasn't arrived for two reasons:

First of all, you forgot to send the payment. However, if you send your payment
today, along with the $15 late fee, and the $29.95 extra processing fee, I'd be
happy to send your card out. And if you would like next day delivery, just add
another $35.25 and I'll have it to you next day!

Second of all, When I said self addressed stamped envelope, I didn't mean make
the envelope out to MY address! you were supposed to make it out to YOUR address!
I already sent the card out, and got it back (I'm sure that really messed up our
already freaked up post office!) Once again, being the nice guy I am, I'll gladly
send your card out for the above fees, and a new SASE (YOUR ADDRESS THIS TIME).
Let me know if you are still interested, several dozen people have already sent
their checks in!

(Yeah Sure!)

Man, if only I could bottle and sell that sarcasm!

I'd be able to afford a deal like this!
