Eight copies sold since the end of June, and two on Ebay right now.  I'd say this one has gotten the "Tombs of Valla" treatment....anyone who wants a copy has one at this point.

Brette:)


I would love to get this, but I'm guessing price will rise after this post...

If I get it, you'll get TD7  :D

Hector.


Now how am I supposed to bid on this with other Acaeum members wanting it?  ;-)

And another seller had some too - those came from an estate sale of someone related to the original project.  Maybe that's where these others are from too.

Interesting. Then, at this point, I can't see justifying spending over $100 on this item (much like Tombs of Valla price has been adjusted far, far downward) until we know just exactly how many are out there.  A lesson for all "investors" in this stuff that a hidden hoard is just inches away from heavily devaluing your collectibles!!!  Lets face it, for a lot of these rare items scarcity is the main factor driving prices....unless it's a Starstone or something similar, it wasn't the stellar writing/artwork that made them expensive.

Pathfinder prices seem to have fallen in the last few months


1) At this moment, there's still five days left on bidding, so it's not that bad yet. And...

2) It's not the Rise of the Runelords series, which will still demand top dollar of all the adventure paths out there.


RPG’s, D&D in particular has had a major influence in my life. It’s bonded me together with life long friends...it’s that bond in life not just as friends, but in our jokes, our mannerisms, and what we find funny. Invincible Overlord

...but if those are from an estate sale, why the second module didnt pop up as well?

Absolutely good advice.  There are a few of us out there trying to track down authors which sometimes turns up boxes of stuff that never sold and other times maybe only a couple copies, etc.  I usually feel it only takes 4-6 copies to drop the price a significant amount.  I have probably contacted 30+ small press authors with maybe 15 still having various amounts of their books around - sometimes 1 or 2 othertimes 50+ copies.

They are uncommon and often go unnoticed or sometimes people forget to bid.  I remember Burntwire picking up a couple of them for a good price because I forgot to bid.

It did, from the other seller I mentioned.  Who Jason just linked to.

Happy that a 3rd module that no one has heard about didn't pop up - I can remain happy and complete.
