Might be worth asking about the printing of volume 3 in this set:

Same seller sold some of these in February. Not sure why they are coming up again, must have additional stock. They are also not all sealed as indicated.

How hard would the yellow cutouts be to replicate?

That slide show is VERY IMPRESSIVE!

Even for a collector who does not own more than 4 or 5 plastic minis... (and those were all given to me)

Even if I was into minis (and had the cash to buy), where would I put this? I mean: several THOUSAND minis?! Seems a bit much, huh?

Starting at 0.01 cents.

Not minty, but useable and these are RARE with Probably only about 10,000 were printed after all... :roll:

I was just going to post this one.

Read it all carefully - several incomplete items/parts in there.

Areas of interest/knowledge: Harn, WFRP, Ars Magica, anything BRP based such as CoC, Runequest, Pendragon and all their related games

As stated, only one of them is complete for certain.

The $BIN on the Geo lot was $80 before the opening bid. I debated but decided no. Seems kinda high when the only gaurantee was the single set. Even if it was sealed.

It was a while ago, but if memory serves, the 1st print shrink-wrapped Geo set I sold went for well over $100 (maybe $140?).

$80 would have been a good buy even if the geos aren't complete. Incomplete Outdoor Geos can go for that much by themselves.

Oh well, You win some, you miss some. I didnt realize it was a 1st print and I don't pay all that much attention to the Geo sets so apparently I had no idea what I was looking at. My loss, hopefully someone else's gain!

Yep, I agree....

If I had seen that listing with the BIN of $80 still active, I would have hit the BIN without blinking twice.

I have no clue what printings they are. But Outdoor Geos is much harder to find (and sells for much more) than the Dungeon Geos - regardless of print. Wouldn't be too surprised if this one ended in the $200+ range but one can hope.

The SWed Geos are not first prints.
Look like 2nd print to me.
Still worth some money.

As for the Outdoor Geos, no way to tell from the pictures what print this one is, nor is there any way to tell if it is complete, cut or uncut...
Except by asking detailed questions of the seller.
FWIW: it does not matter what printing an Outdoor geo set is; a 3rd print set (if complete and uncut) will sell for $150-200 just as soon as a 1st print would.

Cannot really tell, but from looking over the loose Geo sheets (Cut and uncut) in the pictures, it looks like there are not enough sheets to make up BOTH of the un-SWed Dungeon and Outdoor Geomorph sets.

For this lot, if it goes beyond $100 then whomever bids more is taking a lot of risk.
But as I stated above, I would have hit the BIN for $80 without a doubt as there was no risk whatsoever in doing that.
Just from what I can see easily that lot is worth that much.
The rest would be gravy.

Cannot really tell, but counting the sheets in the pictures, it looks like there are not enough sheets to make up BOTH of the un-SWed Dungeon and Outdoor Geomorph sets.

As long as the gravy isn't on the pages.
