If there's any difference between copies, it'll be the other one that's the fake since the seller is the original contact from back in 1977/78: feel free to dig out an old copy of A&E to check.

Where was that "whole case" claim, btw? Hasn't told anyone how many were left, afaik, save to note that there were no spare "parts" (pages or covers). Neither have there been that many up for sale in the past year or two, IIRC.

Well that answers that then.
I have watched a few of these from him, but not in the last 12 months.

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

I would presume the seller is Howard Dawson.

Since he replied to the question on the auctions as 'Howard" and Howard Dawson is the name printed as the contact to buy copies from on the back of the module.

No clue how many he has...

** expired/removed eBay auction **

The title only mentions the three Grenadier dragons, but if you look at the picture, you'll also see a RP silver dragon, and...oh! A Citadel D&D Green Dragon. I'm guessing that's why bidding has already topped the $60 mark with 4 hours left.

Very cool sculpt IMO. Pic: http://www.solegends.com/citdd/bdd20/bd ... rag-01.htm

Seller arcosanti has an RPGA dice bag and a slightly moldy RPGA button for auction:

£51 for a Rules Cyclopedia with, lets be honest, a pretty amateur attempts at a leather binding. This is reaching a stage where it should be moving to the rediculous prices thread. Shame it's a UK listing and we can't see who's gonna buy it.

I'm a competent surgeon. I did his lobotomy.

Looks like an OCE in this lot, but the box looks a little beaten

What's that "Into the Forgotten Realms" booklet in the 9th picture? I've never seen it!

Could be from a Dragon magazine. The other modules in that picture have been pulled from Dragon magazines.

What you're looking at is pages from Dragon magazine pulled out as separate modules.

For instance, the Into the Forgotten Realms module is pretty good. That skeletal figure is the main badguy in a magical school gone...um...bad. I don't know what issue it's from, but I remember it as the first time I heard the name Forgotten Realms.

A number of the other items in the listing are actually just pages from Dragon.

Guy has falx, doc's island and Egg of the Phoenix at decent prices. If these drop much more in price... I will finally get a set! I bet someone here might want these now though!
