For $100 you get to be a member for life (and this organisation has proven itself to be ongoing!)
We have a link on our website to pay electronically by Paypal (it's a 'donate' button, please add in the description that it is for membership).
Membership Services
Apart from being a confederation of gaming groups and their sessions, hosting conventions, and taking on the publication of the ISSN-registered RPG Review webzine, the Cooperative also offers some membership services.
These include:
* An RPG Library now with over a 1000 items and growing. Did you notice if that if you borrow just one or two items per annum you've made the value a life membership fee?
The list of library items is at the following URL:

* Second-hand game stalls at various conventions (e.g., Conquest) where members can sell their old (and new!) games to the public. We have a policy [2] for managing this.
* Facebook groups, including Papers & Paychecks (https://www.facebook.com/groups/359658984821324/ [3]), Gulliver's Trading Company (https://www.facebook.com/groups/208222386790880/ [4]), and the amazing (thank you Edward Jones), Australian RPG & Dice Buy, Sell or Showoff https://www.facebook.com/groups/OzRPGDice/ [5]
