Don and his "Game Closet"
SAN DIEGO. As a young boy growing up in California, Don loved to play board games with his family and friends, especially because it always seemed to bring so much happiness into everyone's heart.  Those special times got Don interested in creating some games of his own.  He studied the various strategies used in lots of games and used that knowledge to design and invent games, such as, Moon Probe, Making Millions, Earth vs. Mars, and his most popular game, Build-A-House.

ST. LOUIS. As a young man living in Missouri, Don was able to bring
his love for board games into his practice as a group therapist.   While working on a psychiatric unit in a university hospital setting, he found   that board games not only soothed patients, but they were instrumental in improving decision-making, problem-solving and goal-setting skills.  This led to Don hosting a weekly event called,
Board Game Night, which became very popular with hospital staff, patients and their families.

UNITED STATES. After enjoying many years of playing old board games   with family, friends, and patients, Don decided he wanted folks across the nation to have an opportunity to enjoy them as well.  He planned to acquire games from anywhere he could to build up an inventory to sell in his later years.  He focused on finding complete games in excellent condition and making complete games from original parts.  For many years he collected games from yard sales, garage sales, flea markets, estate sales, rummage sales and thrift shops.  As his inventory grew to become 1000s of games, Don knew that it was time to create a user-friendly website for all of you to enjoy.  This web site is the result of his efforts.  Feel free to navigate his website by clicking on the underlined links at the top of each page.  Comments and suggestions are always appreciated.

eNEWSLETTER.  Don is developing a quarterly newsletter that includes various articles about board games, a feature game story, and game discounts to be used at Don's Game Closet.   If you have an interesting
article or game story to contribute to our newsletter, please send your article or story to don@donsgamecloset.com.  One game story will be selected as the feature story per issue.  Thank you.

DON'S GAME CLOSET
was created as a hassle-free alternative to dealing with time-consuming auctions, poorly graded merchandise and undependable service.  We make it a policy to give you both quality service and accurately, graded games.  We want you to be comfortable with your game purchase, have a speedy delivery and ultimately enjoy your vintage game for many years into the future.  We believe strongly that if you are a happy customer, you will visit us again or tell your family and friends about us.  Delivering quality services and products requires time and dedication, which is what we are all about at Don's Game Closet.  Here is what we do to make your shopping experience an enjoyable one:

1.
GAME GRADING: Before each game is made available for purchase, we inspect and grade
    each game for completeness and condition.  We usually list our top-grade games first.
More

2.
FINDING YOUR GAME: To easily find any of our games, we provide a custom index system (see
    above).  For example, to find Lakeside's, 1972 Aggravation game you can search by 
first letter
   
(A for Aggravation), by publisher (Lakeside), by decade (1970s) and finally by game category
   
(Aggravation is a marble game)  If your game appears on an index without a game page, email
    us and we will make a page.

3.
PURCHASING YOUR GAME: Each game that is "available for purchase" is listed on a page
    dedicated to that game only.  Our fully automated website allows you to make a safe and easy
    purchase of your game using a secure link to
PayPal.  More
 
4.
SHIPPING YOUR GAME: Your game is usually shipped within 2 business days of your purchase.
    Most shipments are by "Priority Mail" from our St. Louis warehouse, which is centrally located
    in the United States, allowing delivery to most destinations within 2-3 days.  Also, if you provide
   
PayPal with your email, you will be notified of shipment.  More

5.
FREE SERVICES: We provide the following free services: a) free game searches, b) free rules
    searches, and c) free scoresheets for most of our listed games that use them.
