    FS: Slightly used Everquest II game

    I bought EQ2 last week under the delusion that I would actually have time to play it. With the addition of a new dog to my family of 4 I realized this was not the case. My loss is your gain. So, the first $30 takes it. I'll pay the shipping via fedex (actually my company will but don't...

    Being a geezer ain't easy.
