Collector´s Corner: Exclusive S
Hi all,
little quiz - what two things are wrong in that
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... :IT&ih=010
nice auction?
Okay, for one mistake you must study the description exactly! However perhaps you find all two mistakes?!
Puzzle Regards
José

what is cool is that there is one mistake for which you don't even need to understand German or even the two of them ?Jose wrote:Hi all,

another odd thing about this auction is that if you win and are not located in Germany then the seller wants your telephone numberLarry wrote:I don't speak German, so the only mistake I can see is the pieces are
set up wrong. Kings and queens around the wrong way.
Excuse me, it's early morning here, have'nt had my coffee yet.

I dont Think So Regards

hehe, very good, you look very exact
I think there are more than 2 mistakes...
1. King and Queen must be change
2. Pieces setup wrong
3. It is not Amsterdam it is Polgar
4. Description descripes ESB 6000 and no Exclusive board
Result: This board was never played from the seller, for sure, he can not play chess and never thought a chess computer before.
What do you find Alain? Your extraquiz i can not solve...
Loving ebay Regards
José

Hi José,
The second point was that "Maße" sounds more like "Mass" (English) or "Masse" (French), i.e. weight, so I would have used "Dimensionen" instead ("Dimensions" in English and French)

Alain
For me, Mephisto Amsterdam was not world champion in 1984 but 1985.Jose wrote:What do you find Alain? Your extraquiz i can not solve...

Hello José,
best regards,
Robert
hmm, i think, it was meant a little different! The description says, it is similar to the ESB6000, because of (and here is the mistake!) the drawer on the right(!) side (which is obviously not correct for this board! )Jose wrote: 4. Description descripes ESB 6000 and no Exclusive board
