Merp Ice Arnor 2nd edition..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250051864338&s sPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=015

$30 with an hour and a half to go... I think this is relatively rare and normally goes higher?

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

@JohnGaunt: Wouldn't recommend going above $10-15 if interested in bidding on that: standard polychromatic 2nd print, rather than one of the scarcer monochromatic variants. Good value for the rules (i.e. to actually play them) at the lower end, mind you.
The only RQ of any particular value is the 2nd ed. hardback and, on a good day, an ace-copy of the 2nd box.

c/w Signed 1st print at $22; http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160051217057 and a similarly priced 1st sold by an Acaeum member some months back.

And yes, "an entire fantasy role-playing game in one book" was a tagline. Smile

High Fantasy just over 10 hours to go.  Seller also has some other interesting stuff like a Bunnies & Burrows, some Rolemaster stuff, FGU stuff, Car Wars, etc.  Definitely worth a look.  Smile

The seller's getting a good price for it.  I had a shrinkwrap copy up a couple of months ago that had no takers at $9.99 in the first round, and then had two bidders to go up to $10.50 in the second round.  The ol' eBay marketplace changes week to week...

That is the multicoloured 3rd print of High Fantasy and comes up quite regularly. It usually goes for a about $10-15. That is the highest price I have seen it fetch so far.

I notice there is a fair amount of bidding for the AH Powers and Perils stuff too, good to see increased interest in that game.

It seems the non-TSR RPG stuff has really been taking off in the past year.

He has some nice old stuff, I certaily have a couple of hs auctions on watch.. the savinging in postage of several items may explain some of the higher price...

Stephen, I think we have entirely different definitions of reasonable Wink

Seriously, though, I know nothing about this game.  Is it good?

The pictures on the covers look like stickers.  There is also a copy of Bio One in there too.

And a set of Clint Bigglestone's (aka DunDraCon) Reference Module Map Set 1. Stupidly rare if you like geos etc. I've only seen one set in four years on eBay. Well worth $30 or so on its own.

So who's gonna get this one. One of the usual suspects perhaps?

Even though they're not what's drawing bidders to this auction, it's worth noting that the OD&D booklets are photocopies.  The seller wasn't originally aware of this, but is going to amend the auction description.
