Would this even have cost this much new?

Regardless, there's no way he's going to get 450.00. If he was that concerned, he should have put a reserve on it (to at least get a feel of what's available). Would have hit somewhere in the 200.00 range maybe...

And same buyer, too.

Too bad when you're pointing to an item but there's a RICH guy around...

Wow, what a bargain:

Same seller also has the other two books up for the same ridiculous price. Confused

I'm always a bit leery of posting in this thread, in case either the seller or bidder is a member -- but I think this belongs here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT &item=270291011829

Now, I know that the 1976 orange character records and game reference sheets are rare. But this isn't for the pads. Unless I'm misreading the description -- this is just for one page of each, and there were I think 24 pages per pad. So at $61 with less than four hours to go, that would aggregate to over $1400 for the pads. Shocked

You're forgetting to factor in the savings on the free shipping Laughing

And to think if he was just smart enough to do that... rip.... one page at a time per week...

I really think they have lost their minds. I got $60 at the Gencon auction for mine. I bought two of them 2 years ago for $20 each on ebay.

So... I pay you £30 for your manky box set and a few books, and you can't even be bothered to post them? I have to traipse out to Bedford (wherever that is) and pick them up. I don't think so. Laughing

I would agree that the price is very optimistic... But, I could see it going for $50.00 during the holiday season. I actually wouldn't be surprised if they snag a sucker at the current price. Will be interesting to see.

Mini madness ... Shocked

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=350133734580&s sPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=022

Not sure if this is a silly price or not, but is this a realistic amount for these minis or are there a few rares lurking in this lot?

Beholder and green slime are harder to get (around $40-$50 range). No real commons in there though, the rest normally go in the $15-$25 range so not that out to lunch Smile
