I think that the $20 it's currently going for is a bargain.

That one's going to one of the big collectors. My guess would be Kynan.

Lot of GDW Traveller wargames.  Looks like all of them are complete except Azhanti High Lightning (missing supplement 5).  Most of the boxes are in good shape except for AHL and Imperium.  Still not a bad lot.

Seller also has a couple more lots:

Lot contains Supplement 5:Lightning Class Cruisers and Adventure 12:Secret of the Ancients.

Lot contains Beltstrike and Invasion: Earth.


Lately I have noticed a lot of the Traveller auctions that I am watching are getting bid on by one particular individual.  In some cases the bids are ridiculously high.  Since I sometimes like to see what else the person is bidding on to get an idea of if they are the "gotta have it now" type of bidder and money is no object or if they are just looney.

Can someone please tell me if bidding on this many items in one month should be grounds for an intervention?  This looks like a horrible case of Ebay addiction:

PHOTOCOPY of a prepub, not a prepub. Looks like artificial imitation RPG from concentrate.

UK auction with 8 days to go. Appears to be complete with only some of the counter punched.  Greg Stafford is the current high bidder though.  Confused

Yeah, now it's up to $66.

Interesting, the only indication that it's a 2nd printing comes from the Q&A.  The description doesn't give that impression, though.

Yep, that one is my auction.  I'm going directly off of what the cover of the module says.  The star on the cover reads "Special 1E conversion for Gen Con 2006".  But in the two times I've listed it (odd it got no bids the first time), I've made no secret of where it came from in the Q&A section.  I knew it was reprinted from the initial 60 (or whatever it was) at Gencon but up until today when someone sent me this thread, I didn't know there were any mechanical differences between the two.

What can I say, hooray for the collected knowledge of Acaeum info rules! Smile

It does pain me to sell it so soon after buying it, especially knowing what past LE/OOP DCC's go for, but I'm trying to tone down my collection greatly (I'm a Holmes D&D man and I recently got a NM set that I want to build off of) and the money for Christmas certainly won't hurt - though to be honest I expected maybe $20 for it and indeed nearly put a Buy It Now at that price point.  Glad I didn't!  Razz

Well, congrats on the price.  DCC really are the next wave of collecting.

I'm not a Chaosium or Runequest collector, so I don't know if this single rulebook is complete, first edition, or what.  The cover artwork is dated 1979, and the Chaosium logo is unfamiliar to me.

Believe it is the RuneQuest softcover (not a good description other then condition) valued around $30.
