Can Stave or other members on the board share some basic details/old stave ads for these puzzles (particularly noah's ark)?

Ok - here's the NEW scoop! The Noah's Ark posted on eBay IS NOT the Limited Edition. Sorry :-( It was the end of the day (Jennifer, Cindy, and I had been scheming on a couple of new designs) and I was excited to see Ted's email about LE's on eBay - so in my haste I assumed they were both LE's. This customer does have the LE version of Noah's Ark.

I believe the Noah's Ark puzzle listed is a traditional, particularly since the piece count is so high. Even still - the current bid is an awesome deal. Keep your eye on both of these listings. If you want me to post more info on either please let me know.

Sorry for the confusion, p

P.S. - those new designs I mentioned above will require Community Member participation to complete - stay tuned.

You have sparked my curiosity now. What did the LE Noah’s Ark look like? Do you still have the information on it? Thank you. :-)

Tammy & Joe - thanks for providing the link to eBay.

June, thank you for the question. Stave's full price is $6,895 with a current deal price of $5,995 good thru the end of this month.

I just checked the listing - the starting bid is $4,200. The puzzle does have one piece of personalization. For privacy sake I can't say what it is, but if anyone is considering bidding you can email the seller to ask.

Happy Puzzling!

Thanks for respecting my privacy, Paula. The personalized piece is my name: "Ron." I honestly love Stave puzzles and I'm a big fan of the wonderful crew that creates these treasures. If not for my serious health issues and mounting bills, I certainly wouldn't be attempting to auction a puzzle I waited 10 years to buy and play. Best Regards, Ron

Hi Ron,

Thanks for commenting in here about the personalization. We do consider all our puzzle fanatics to be like family and therefore have to think twice before we just start putting information out there. I hope some special Stave collector ends up with your KaSC...it's a treasure and NOT to be missed!

I, too, am sincerely sorry to hear about your health issues. Paula
