That went for $95! 8O The last several I saw went in the $65 range, though a year ago there were others that went for $75 and $88.

While we're on the subject of this module, why do the Toad people have it up for double????

** expired/removed eBay auction **


This book is in excellent shape, straight off the shelf. The insides are pristine, there may be some slight shelf wear. The Book is complete with all inserts that are included present.



I didn't realize it was ever sold "off the shelf". Whose shelf are we talking about here? Sounds suspicious...

So, which one of you told seller how much the reserve price should be?

What was the reserve price?



In any case:

If I wanted it and had the funds, I would be willing to go beyond $1,250.03 though.

Not in great condition, but I think around $1500 (even $1700) would not be overpaying for that set.

First off, I feel your frustration as I often feel that same way.

And I could post that note almost any day of the week and about any one of a dozen or more members here.
HOWEVER, I (usually) do not, as very often they see an item before I do and as a result I am able to find things I want.
Sometimes items I have wanted for a very LONG time.

And not that they need or want my approval... but.
Post away guys....

THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS!  8)


I think your sentiments are in the right place, but I thought the original comment with emoticon was meant to be taken as a joke.  Gave me a laugh, anyway.

I told the seller I thought the reserve should be in the $700-$750 range, just to throw you guys a bone  PDT_Armataz_01_12  :)

Ok, I'm kidding. I didn't mention any reserve. In fact, I didn't even talk to the seller at all. I just thought the 0 feedback dude bidding pennies apart was odd. I didn't even know you could do that on an auction above a certain price, like $10 or something :?:  Especially when you hit the $1000 range, I thought the bid increments had to be in the multiple dollar range ($5-$10?)

I thought he was being funny too. I HOPE it was supposed to be a joke  PDT_Armataz_01_15

But seriously, I'm just posting these items because previously others have posted stuff I wasn't aware of that I definitely got my interest. Especially when I was new.

Just to chime in, I found this thread very useful when I was staring out... often the seller's other listed items were equally (or more) interesting to me, too.

Once in a while the extra publicity works against me, but on balance I've found (and won) way more items because of posts to this thread, than I think I've lost because of the extra attention...

Thanks everyone for your contributions :)

Absolutely I was.  That's what the  :wink: was for!

I just have this feeling that we're pointing items out (and would be happy to have any regular pick it up if they need it), but we're actually informing dozens of lurkers as well.  If we don't point them out, then they could go unnoticed... and be picked up by someone else.

Maybe I'm just paranoid.   :roll:

Yes, I took your post as it was intended...


Lightly.




And as I said, I am very glad that folks DO post things they see that might be of interest to other Members here.


Most of the time when I decide I should post something, one of the regular posters has already done so.


But sometimes I am able to point out an item or two that may have missed being posted to the thread.




Like this.




http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180479836465&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123




There is a copy of B-10 almost completely hidden in this lot.


Wrote the seller to ask if it is complete and in what condition the parts are in.


I just heard back ... with 3 days and 12 hours left.




It is complete and all items are in nice condition with book/map/and unpunched Card Counter sheet.

AD&D Fighting Wheel - but it doesn't look like the FW listed here in the Rares section. Anyone recognize it? Perhaps it is homemade?

Close. Issue #74.  :wink:

I have an extra one of those, plus an unassembled one in a coverless Dragon. I just saw one sold on EBay recently for about US $7-8.

The first paint set I ever used. <snif, snif>  :cry:



Even dried out, I seem to recall more paint in there than that.

The Lost Caverns of Tsojconth




ONLY 9 Hourse left and at just $202




However, check the sellers feedback.


Not just the score, though that alone is scary, go and read it.

Shouldn't be a problem as that was at least in part due to their account being hijacked and eBay refusing to remove the negative feedbacks.
If you check back, you'll see they've sold a $1,700+ Rahasia to another Acaeum member without any problems.

Feel free to leave it to me at $200-ish if you wish, though. :)
