Seeing as how the replies were deleted on Stratics I have no need to keep the message I originally posted.
Also here is what I wrote if you do not wish to read it on Stratics:
Well, I've been looking through characters on shards I never play and I found an old christmas prize ticket from I think 2000 on Europa and another on Catskills. I claimed the prize on Europa and opted for the snow globe. I'm kicking myself for not claiming the bell because the snow globe turned out to be one from the 2005 gift set, Covetous, which I already have. From what I can gather trying to find out the names of older globes, this should be Cove. It wouldn't be too bad if it was Destard, which is the only globe I am missing in the 2005 set.
Now I'm reluctant to claim the gift on Catskills because I want destard, but at the same time I don't want another duplicate snow globe. Taking the bell would be the surer thing, that way I get something I don't have and a chance at a white one.
It would also be swell if I could somehow exchange the Covetous globe for either a Destard, Cove (or anyother globes pre-2005), a bell, or give the globe back and get the ticket in return....
