He is going to get boned on that Castle Zagyg. Best to sell them with a bin, the auctions have been going for about half the bin price.

I had a question about the 21st Century Game Reproductions of the D&D books they have posted.  I don't see them mentioned on the Acaeum website.   Are they real and how rare are they?


** expired/removed eBay auction **


Well, yes, they're real.  I mean, you see them there, don't you?   :D

Just kidding.  Yes, they were licensed products.  I'm sure that some are rarer than others (like anything else), but overall I don't believe any of them would be considered truly rare.  I don't recall many auctions for a decent sized lot though - usually they come up singly.

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

From what I understand the mini reprints were made in order for WoTC to keep copyright on the material that would have otherwise expired.  Same deal with their new re-printings of the 1E core books.

Looks like a final price of $280 for the Zagyg set in an open auction - comparable to the BIN ones that I have seen considering the BIN final value fees are higher than open auction fees.  $130-$144.50 on Store House, Moat Gate, and Town Halls is impressive.  These are not nearly as hard to find and probably should have sold for 1/3 that price.

The Store House, Moat Gate, and Town Hall books are still selling well (MG leading the pack at $115, Town Halls at $99, and Store House at $76).  With patience they will sell, just don't start the bidding too low.

Still sitting on my Castle Zagyg though, the box is destroyed so I'm not thinking that I'd get a great price for it for another year or two.

With prices like that it might be time for me to sell my Moat Gate or Town Hall (can't remember which one I have). But I would have expected those all to have bottomed out at about $30-40 at best. Every time I see someone selling the Gazetteer at $75 it seems to sit and not sell. Go figure?!


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