Only if you constantly overpay for items on impulse like I do.

Inferno Rare

Shall be interesting to see this when a photo is posted, but the price sort of blew me away.

$30 for Lara's Tower, anyone.........anyone.........anyone.....?

normally $5

.......screeeeechhhhh (braking sound)....hold everything...I just found why the above Seller listed his at $30

$31.55 for a VG!!!

This is a common module and I have not seen a VG sell for over $4 prior to this!


....(edit)

In fact the Seller that has now listed at $30, had theirs listed at 99 cents but it passed in with no bids!

Remarkable!

seller only has late revised csio = not convinced declare as 1st/1st or $$ even if right color


Yeah..just because it doesn't have a cover sheet doesn't make it a 1st print, 1st release. But that auction is damn impressive.

Just spotted a rather silly starting price for a #550 Field Guide to Encounters.  Shocked

About 20 shots of Jack. The two that bid this up must have split the bottle.

Just truckloads of cash, apparently.

I've seen other JG sellers throw those into lots as a what-the-hell addition. You can trip over them in the street ...

What Lofenloc wants, Lofenloc gets.  He has stomped me in many bids.  I wonder if he mistook the description of author's notes to be actual notes separate from the adventure.

IMHO they are worth exactly what someone is willing to pay for them, and that is a combination of percieved scarcity, desirability, presentation and marketing. I don't think I could get those prices for them, but I bet I could hit $30 a pop.

We'll see. Just going fishing. Doesn't cost me a penny more to list them at $99
