I guess this counts as merch . .

This guy could be somebody's new best friend. https://www.reddit.com/r/jackwhite/comm ... any_value/

Whoa. I wonder if that's real or if the guy is one of us playing games. If it's real, could be a cool find.

Tough to know. Could be a hoax/somebody acting disingenuous, or could be the mother lode. :?

Are those the same chairs that were talked about here a couple years ago, perhaps?

Found the discussion, I think. FYI, that was Jeff Meier selling these.

Yeah, most likely the same chairs. At least they have the same pattern under the seat. Just a different card.

Here's one of the chairs Jeff was selling (he said this card was missing):

And here's the one the guy on Reddit is shopping around (new card):

Rumor has it a Swirl member bought the chairs from Jeff, though nobody came forward. So this could be for real. If anyone hears back from the guy or buys the chairs, report back here for bragging rights.

So far I'm not hearing anything. He may not be responding to anyone.

As far as I can tell, he's asking if they're worth anything ("any value?") rather than actually selling them. That's why I posted it--he (or she) seems unsure of what he's got. And he appears to have four of them.

Probably these 4 from the previous discussion.

So the Swirler who bought them before has never stepped forward to identify his or her self?

Not to my knowledge. And they certainly never said so here.

I can tell you right now the chairs posted on Reddit are not the chairs sold previously.
