$150+ looks high. third bid $81 with minutes to end. not so many b10s recent while x10 more common. unpunched probably $75/100-125 until few more appear then see which way that goes

To think I GAVE this to a friend of mine 20+ years ago. I still remember buying it new at Harts Five & Dime in New Milford CT.

If I had only saved it to sell it now to buy something else I REALLY want

Even though this is in SW, I think it's way over the top.

Perhaps they confused this module with Dwarven Glory? Laughing

$120 - $125 range for unpunched NM Night's Dark is typical via auction.
I picked up an copy but I got lucky because it was part of a lot. They don't show up very often that I've seen.

Be patient.. you can grab one cheaper. (Except the UK version of course)

Some Judges Guild Journals in Average to Good condition:

Average to Good = stored in the dungeon and used to house train prisoners.

Whoa. I got mine (in SW) for $41 a couple of years ago.

I would pay 40 (even perhaps 60) for a SW Castle Greyhawk (The real one), but not for that one.

Hmm... maybe I'm missing something...? I understand these aren't really, really common, but...

B11/B12 lot at $255 with 4 hours to go:

It did go for $255. Odd, to say the least. The winning bidder had the same feedback as the seller, but I'm assuming that was just a coincidence.

Just the numbers are the same. I've done business with the bidder, but I don't think I've ever done business with this seller before.

Maybe it's time to start selling off spares.

I was watching to bid on this one as well, but $255 is crazy.

I was the seller on this auction and I'm honestly as shocked as it seems you guys are! I'm not a collector but have just begun selling an old collection of stuff that was bought during my younger years. I did some estimates on the value of those items at this site but never expected it to go for that much despite the fact that they are in great condition. The buyer seems to be honest, there has been some correspondence working out the shipping details. I think I just got lucky! Very Happy

Perhaps a little on the high side.

(I had one of those stickers somewhere - were they store giveaways or something?)
