The first pic is a stock photo I think, which he doesnt mention. On further photos you can see where the cover is rubbed white where the red has come off, but it doesnt appear so on that first pic.
T&T might pay that for it in that condition, but I would be a little surprised if a collector would. Still, who knows?  Maybe I sold myself short 
Cheers,
Malc |

I was surprised that it wasn't snapped up. How many of the various printings of the white box were ever produced? |

ian...umm nah
the only folk who will have this is me as DM. the six guys who played - all of the copies here (7) were signed by all involved (myself, addermcone, frank mentzer, badmike, kingofpain, blackmoor and prufrock) and one final copy (unsigned), will be getting sent to stratochamp. this is because he was meant to play, but due to time constraints, couldnt and we all felt it was the right thing to do.
other than that, no more copies. its not a collectible anyway, its just a game the guys played and a copy of said game.
i will be doing a report though. have started it, but am still too tired

Al has given me permission to run his game at some point in a tournament setting. And I think Al can be persuaded to run it again at some future con. So some lucky individuals may get a chance someday to also participate in the Return game, which is really the way to experience it.

I take it this has already been spotted. If not here you go.
edit.....just seen it on the previous page |
Nice of him to copy and paste the Acaeum description without giving credit for it. |

I'm pretty sure he swiped the stock image in his auction from the Acaeum as well. |

Well, at least he did not steal the other pictures.
At least I do not think so.
Flowers aside...... I cannot imagine a serious collector shooting pictures of a $2,790.45 collectable game module, with the module stuffed into a rubber page holder.
Also, he DID do a couple of edits to that Acaeum description.
He added BOLD to the last short sentance, and a couple of paragraph spaces..........
I asked the seller where he got the picture and description and how much the Reserve was.
| Quote: | Dear aneoth,
Hi im selling this for a friend,
The reserve price is £1500.
And i dont know where he got the discription or the first jpeg from, as he sent it to me via an email.

Nice spot, there King.
I've been periodically searching for those sets with the Hare in them for years, and have never come across one. |

That is how I got my copy of Jade Hare. I didn't know it was there until I picked it up (locally) and opened the box. |
