Given how mine was packed it looks like my seller buys them directly from
Excalibur. There was an invoice from Excalibur too, but it didn't give the
wholesale price.

I should try sticking some magnets in standard tournament pieces and see how
that works. Not that I normally promote a lot of pieces, but I started out
playing the pawn game against it for fun so...

With all of these magnets, just keep your floppies away from this beast. Or it
will have the ultimate revenge ;-)
