Nothing else. But considering:

L3---$50 (conservative; could go as much as $70)
G1, G2, G3, I6, S2, Holmes Rulebook---$15 each
B2, History of TSR book----$10 each

And a complete box sells for under $100......?

Can you beleive I once had BOTH of these! It was back in the day when I didn't treat any of my gaming stuff with much respect... especially anything printed post 1983 (even then I preferred the older stuff).



I have no recollection as to what I did with them.

I remember coming across these at one of those bookstores in the mall like B Dalton and thinking it was some sort of cheap marketing ploy to get you to buy surplus manuals that were overprinted :lol:

$27.96 with over 2 days left.




And This one has NO map booklet..........  8O




A few days ago (When it was at 4 or 5 bucks) I was watching it with the thought of buying this book to replace my worn out copy that has a map booklet.




Not now..... No thanks. :roll:

I was too.  The seller is entitled to do whatever they want with their goods, but I think they bit too early, and worse, they probably think they are the ones getting the good deal.  I probably would have put in a bid substantially larger than that.

I made a bitter and jealous inquiry to the seller and he claimed to have bought them for $.50 originally.

mentions: "2nd Edition November 1978"

probably a 5th... I'll ask some Qs.




seller responds:



"The set does not come with the actual dice. There is a section in the book called "Using the Dice" but that is it.

The bottom of the box depicts pictures of other booklets -- there are 5 dice in that picture.

On a scale of 1-10, I would give the box a 6 or 7 -- still in very good structural condition - has some wear on the corners and some creases. Graphics are still nice.

Let me know if you have any other questions."

Is this worth $24? And is this the earliest edition?



Free shipping...



If you guys don't mind I think I will try to take this for myself.
