Interesting website.
I have a few questions:
1. How can someone who is interested in your book on Fischer or in one of the six chess sets buy a copy? There is no basket and no credit card acceptance.
2. Why are you selling those precious things only today, more than two years after Bobby's passing?
3. The chess sets don't look as if they were of a high value. Look at the pieces and the chess boards. They are worth at most 10 Euros each if at all.
Anyway, your website looks nice and it was nice to meet you.

Dear Frenzy,
First of all I want to thank you for the interest shown and the questions raised. I am more than happy to give you the answers. The book is about to be published this fall, first edition in English language. Hopefully, German translation will follow soon. I will be glad to inform you as soon as I determine the exact publishing date and the ways to purchase. As for chess sets and other valuables, auction will be scheduled with one of the leading auction houses in the world as part of the book promotion and marketing activities. You can also revisit my website during the fall since all the information will be published as soon as possible.
The items you saw on the auction page are my personal property and a gift from Bobby and the right time to auction is only the time specified by my mind and my soul.
Also, let me clearly state that I decided to do all this just to make sure that the truth about the personality of Bobby Fischer and the truth of who he really, really was is clearly stated for the future generations.
You are right when you say that the chess sets and figure shapes are not of great material value. But, how valuable would the canvas of the Van Gogh painting be without his signature on it? Also, you must keep in mind that these are the only official chess sets with both signatures on the authorized surface.
Once more, let me thank you for the interest shown and offer to answer any questions you might have about Bobby Fischers personality.
Regards.
