I bought a huge box of 1st ed AD&D/D&D modules from a person in BC-sight unseen. (but the price was too good to resist) I picked them up today and they are all slightly stiff and wavy from being stored in a basement. Any advice?
PS-the stuff that was pristine-and there was a bunch-more than offsets the other stuff.

Post pics and tell us what you paid!  That's why we come here; Collection Porn!

(not "Porn Collection", that's another forum bub!)

All that for $150 (CAN) was a very good price.
Stiff or not.
Nice find!

Good luck with the wavy thing for the stuff that has that problem.

I don't often take a chance on sight unseen stuff (and sending out money to people on Kijiji), but I've done it twice and so far, so good.

You scored, flyingmelon.  Slightly wavy or not, that's a fine score for $150 Canadian.

That's actually my old half set-I had been looking for a while for a complete one-and when this stuff showed up- I was more than pleased to find the boxed set complete and unused/unpunched-it even had the little metal stick that came with the minis! And...the box had most of H1 in it!
This collection was bought with the intention of "upgrading" my own collection-There was about 10-12 modules (and a box set) not pictured that went onto the shelves-that I didn't already have, and I knew that I could flip the rest. So, to answer your question I'm probably going to parcel them off. Give me a week or so and I may be listing them here in the classifieds. FOR SURE the D&D stuff is all going-I just don't collect it.
