Yes, I bought a lot of about 100 mint condition wooden Saitek pieces from
someone that used to sell and repair the computers.  There was a complete set of
President pieces (which was the main reason I bought them since my President was
missing a black pawn).  Another almost complete set of President pieces, and
several loose ones.  The seller didn't know why he only had a set of white
Renaissance pieces and said he looked for some time trying to find the black
ones.  There was also another smaller set of wooden pieces.

Now all I need are some more computers!
