Is this real? And if so, is $2k a reasonable BIN price?

It's real.
Well know collector.

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

Yes its real and some/many would consider the $2K BIN as cheap or at least reasonable.

I've also seen the other copy he mentions in the description...the one that he's holding on to. It will make you weep.

2K is reasonable for sure. In previous years it has gone for more.

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

I'd be shocked to see it sell for $2000. I listed one for sale here over the past couple years for $1900 and had no bites. Eventually sold it last fall for $1700. It's still very much a down market.

I'd be very interested if everyone thought this statement was applicable for the entire range of rarities. I do see the high $ stuff sitting around, but the medium to low rarity stuff looks like its seeing an uptic in the dollar value spent to aquire recently. I dunno if its attributable to a bunch of new people coming into the market or the relative "dry" period that we seem to be in now as compared to Oct - Dec of last year or some combination of both.

Just my observations.

Examples?

I think everything is down, but I'm not sure what range you're referring to.

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