It's not crumpled-up; it's in fine condition. Mad

Seriously, whoever buys it may be able to iron out the wrinkles. Heat is bad for paper, but a few minutes under the iron may make the module look a lot better. However, the price remains in the same condition.

$20.50 for a Dragon's Hall! This is a commonly listed item, which usually goes for about $3

Perhaps the Buyer above could get this SW copy of Masters of the Mind. A perennial 99 center for $25!!!

After 18 months of monitoring, Waspwinter was the lowest valued product on my list at an average of $1.18 for a SW copy. This has all changed with Cougie setting a new record:

GBP5.00 or US$10.00!

Not to mention I have a SW copy in my ebay store for under $10. Apparantly he was trying to maximize his buys from Crazy Egor and ended up over bidding on a few items so he could combine shipping. Dumbass.

PS...which I sold immediately after posting this, probably by someone noticing my final price was below Crazy Egor's minimum price, or seeing the last one sold at $20 so $8.50 was a deal!!!

Dea's a really nice person and I've bought some decently priced stuff from her over the years, but from this and other items I've also come to the conclusion that she really doesn't know the value of Judges Guild stuff. Smile

I've noticed an interesting phenomenon with JG books. Because of their low production values, they look old, and in a lot of used bookstores and online seller's minds, that equates to "valuable". I rarely see JG items priced at "logical" prices when they turn up in the local Half Price Books, and they will typically sit on the shelves for a long time with prices of $25 or so each on common stuff.

I think we can see the same thing online, maybe not as much because a simple word search of the item's title will lead one to discover there are lots of copies out there of most items. But take it from me, even priced to sell ($5-$6 each) JG items can sit a LONG time in an Ebay store!

The quantity still floating around is the culprit, especially for things printed in the 80s.

Duck Tower is not exactly Dark Tower, but seems this one is going to go for a good bit. Is Runequest surging now?

I have been watching some Runequest stuff for a friend of mine who plays and was looking for some older stuff (Pavis, Big Rubble, etc.).

Those two items in particular usually fetch a price of $60-$80 for fine+ copies.

I had been watching out for Duck Tower a while back because PoC over at Yog-Sothoth.com was looking for one. They did not come around that often and when I did see them they usually were going for around $40-$50.

There may have been some that went cheaper than that since I was not looking out for them that closely.
