I believe the gift the rule gave, autographed copy of Arlo Smitty Stefan
McEue's new book, "1001 Anagrams of 'Fantasy Rules Committee'", does have 
a price, FB13.55 (FB = Fantasy Bucks). The box that was opened was already 
given to FRC by a previous rule, and as such I don't believe needs to be 
priced, since it was already given.
