Fable dev finds commemorative plaque on eBay after losing it 12 years ago

gamesradar.com:

One of the developers on the original Fable has revealed that they recently found the commemorative plaque given to them for working on the game, after losing it 12 years ago. 

Mike Ducker, who worked as a programmer on the Fable series, took to Twitter (opens in new tab) this week to tell the story of how they lost, and were eventually reunited with, the exclusive plaque. In a thread, Ducker wrote: "The plaque I was given for making Fable has been missing presumed stolen since 2010."

"It ended up in a recycling centre auction in Northampton around 2014, then sat in a collection until it went on sale on eBay recently, where a game dev I'd never met saw it and told me," Ducker explained. 

In a follow-up tweet (opens in new tab), the story continued: "The seller returned it for the price they paid for it (less than 10% of what they had listed it for and much less than I was willing to pay). Never thought I'd see it again and so unlikely that I ever did."
