Use this sticky thread to post interesting auction items that may have escaped the notice of other collectors.

Not sure how much these go for, but there's a Dungeon Hobby Shop order form in here. Looks like some stray marks on it, though ...

Man, those bring back memories. I had that very same set as a kid. I wonder how many of those packs they sold; must've been a lot.

Palace of the Vampire Queen seems to come up once a week these days.

Or perhaps (I am not paying that close attention) its the same one listed every week.

Seller already has a history of being deliberately vague and not dealing well with buyers. Suspect you may get into a problem if you buy from this jerk. You've already had way too much bad luck to be dealing with an scammer like that.

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

I thought I recognized the seller name. He has a bunch of SW Gazateers up. They had about average BIN prices and teh shipping combo might have saved a few bucks, but something about the username was familiar so I didnt. Someone has luckily saved me the further debate by bidding on them all.

I am quite proud of my 207-long 100% pos feedback. It's been hard work over four years. How is it possible to be that shady with almost my same feedback at 100%? I'll never understand that.

White box Set, either 5th or perhaps 4th.

Damaged books with loose pages taped, box has some damage too.

Not great, but still under $50.

http://cgi.ebay.com/AD-D-1E-Hardcover-MONSTER-MANUAL-3rd-Priting-/260785114443?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb8010d4b

$9.98 BIN for a good condition Monster Manual

Red letter 3rd print.

Guido the Gypsy is the seller.

I recently watched as several second prints sold for well over $50 (Dont really know why though).

One 2nd print recently sold for an unbelievable $120 or more (IIRC).

(I suspect the buyers thought it was a 1st print)

Perhaps the trend is going upwards for early red letter prints of the MM.

I recently reported in another thread that this seller sold me a somewhat rare book a short time ago that was laminated.

That listing did not say the book had that issue.

Seller made it right though with a partial refund.

Now the same seller DOES tell us that his books are Laminated.

Laminated 2nd print Gods Demi Gods Heroes OD&D Supplement.

Looks good though.

Blackmoor, also laminated

http://cgi.ebay.com/ORIGINAL-VINTAGE-D-D-GREYHAWK-SUPPPLEMENT-NICE-/260785060024?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb80038b8

Greyhawk, also laminated

Eldritch, also laminated

OCE, also laminated (the three volumes, not the reference sheets).

I think I am starting to see a pattern here... :lol:

Looks like the owner created his own little town. That's gotta be worth at least another couple hundred bucks right? :roll:
