his said, what are the differences between consumer and retailer editions?

The dealer version has a few pages of dealer info stuff at the beginning but the catalog part is the same.

Wizard's Quest Avalon Hill (825) NIB & Shrinkwrapped

Not sure if this is particularly rare or not, or even a good deal. But it is in shrink. Wink

A rare and interesting item. The map is often missing. However last copies sold for strangely low prices...

MEGA RPG lot, with the screen and the only module! The rules book is not rare but the screen is very hard to find. I remember an Acaeum member sold one copy of the module (as a non-TSR D&D module....) for a lot of money on ebay...

I see these quite often.
Not a bad BIN for this one ($29.99, $12.00 shipping), considering it is shrink wrapped.
Used sets sell for less, but I seldom see a SW one.

I have the MEGA screen. Always wondered what it was exactly.

The MEGA screen was actually sold with the module Ogre Forest. I have one still in shrink with it wrapped inside. It is an interesting system but I don't think the MEGA book or module are that hard to find and they usually don't sell for too much. I think I have an extra overpriced one on my webpage.

it depends really. I have seen it sold for a lot of $ and sometimes for nothing... But the screen was rarely present. It is only the third I see for sale.

Enough Cthulhu to choke any maggot. Shocked

Even one of the old ones.

This seller has 60 listings showing at this time.
At least 40 of them are specifically Call of Cthulhu Items and ALL of his current listings are published by Chaosism.

I am not a huge Cthulhu fan, but I have NEVER seen so many COC items in one place before.

Most of them were starting at .99 cents too. Cool

The insanity of it all astounds me. Shocked

too true. One should be careful buying too much Call of Cthulhu in one go... Very Happy

Aneoth,

You forgot to mention all of the Pendragon stuff that he has listed including a 1st edition box set that looks to be in pretty good shape.
Fun system, although I have not played it for quite a few years.

The seller is a member here as well. Or at least he used to be. I guess you dont stop being a member of an internet forum unless you get banned eh?

I noticed some of those auctions yesterday....especially the copy of Green and Pleasant Land. I wont be bidding on any though with Gen Con just around the corner. Gotta save up all the pennies I can. Wink

I've got a bunch of bids in on some of those, so uh... Damn you, Aneoth!

That said, I'm getting kind of scared by how few of those I'm actually missing in some form or another. Shocked

Sorry. I thought the same as you for a while.
I had noticed them right after they were listed actually and placed watches on a few items, including the Pendragon 1st box mentioned above...
which BTW I didn't forget at all.....
DAMN YOU Jason........ Wink

Like I said....
let the insanity begin Twisted Evil

And do try to be careful out there people!

I can send you a copy of MEGA if you want it. It's got some spinewear and smells like an ashtray. Mad

I have an Ogre Forest in SW too with the screen, but not the MEGA book, which has been on my want list for some time. Our nemesis, C***d has one with a 99p BIN, but shipping is 11 pounds, so I have resisted buying it. I saw a couple of others recently which passed in at $5 with no bids, but condition was not good. I am just biding my time, trying to get decent price + shipping combination. If any has one (i.e. not smoked and dog-rogered) that they're willing to part with let me know.
