The YOIS Waiting List


This list is an effort toward two purposes:

  1. To give collectors the opportunity to sign up in advance for items, to they don't have to keep checking the Shoppe for them. Newly-added items are matched against the waiting list, and if a user has requested that item, it is immediately reserved for that person.
  2. To hook collectors up with one another, in order to trade items that might not pass through the Shoppe for quite some time.

Simply click the "RESERVE A GAME" button below if you'd like to put on this list for one or more items. (You must be registered and signed into YOIS before you can use this feature.)

If you have an item that someone else is looking for, and you are willing to sell it, please get in touch with that person through e-mail to work out the details of the exchange. (You will need to remove the anti-spam string from the person's e-mail address before you can successfully contact them.)
