I remember the fighter and priest packs for sale at KB toys for $2.99 way back when.

I know a place in Seattle where they are still on the retail shelf.

I stand by that...

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

These are classic 2nd Edition schlock.

The poster child for 2nd Edition should be posing with one of these.

I bought mine in Seattle, well near Seattle, at the Supermall.

Red Steel, Dark Sun (all the smaller boxed sets),Karameikos, the Player Packs, Al Qadim, they were all incredibly cheap. I didn't have a great deal of respect for most of the material but they were so inexpensive I couldn't resist.

There was a good game store along the way that had all the mono modules at cheap prices. I had them already so I past them up. :oops:

Hard to tell the condition from the photos beyond the seller's short description, but this might be a good deal for a large lot if you have the pocket change...

Coug likes to buy these kinds of lots and have them shipped to his "US" address except he prefers newbie sellers.

It works out to about $7.00 a module, and it's not worth the effort to me. I usually shoot for buying things that are half what I think they'll sell for to make it worth my time & trouble.

Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Exactly. Only four real chase items in the entire lot. But, for the new collector it is a fair deal.

Anyone have a guess on how that might do? I think I saw one recently for cheap.

I think $25 is high. Probably $15 is more realistic but can be found cheaper.

Definitely varies by condition though: nice excellent+/near-minty ones usually go $25-35.

4E Hommlet going cheap with 12 hours to go....

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390163887960&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

One of the better 3E conversions IMO.

US only though.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

A 1st print woodgrain really should be listed here, and not buried too deep.

We never did ask about Greg Lind, but the story of this 1st print woodgrain surfacing is a good one.
