Since there have been no entries on this thread for some time...

No big steal, but it was Fun!

By the way, shipped via media mail ($2 cost) in an envelope! $7.50 sure goes a long way.... Evil or Very Mad

Nice find!

That Seller has a few other interesting items. Can't decide whether to bid on the Judges Guild lots or the:

Watermelon Nesting Decorations! Smile

Hi,

I found 5 issues of the RPGA European News in the top room last night.

No idea where they came from, but they were with a Silver Anniversary catalogue, so I've probably had them for a while. Very Happy

Cheers,
Malc

Who cares about the JG stuff and the decorations when the seller is also offering Star Trek wardrobe designer notes and patterns!

Now I just gotta decide if I am going to wear that spiffy white admiral's uniform from the first movie or the kick-ass red one from the second movie at Gen Con. Hey Mike, if you want I will make you one too. Or are you one of those dorks who would rather wear one of the Next Generation jumpsuits?

A special thanks to spades1013 for helping me out with this treasure. He tells me he has a few more rares hanging around.

Thanks James Smile

Aww shucks, 'twerent nuthin'. I'm just glad it made it safe and sound. I would have crapped out my heart if something had happened to it in transit (insurance notwithstanding).

hey guys

well today (it arrived), i managed to get my hands on a Warriors of Mars....

and i feel somewhat embarrassed actually, to say that i got it for $16.44 plus shipping Embarassed

to say i am happy with the purchase, kinda goes off the scale really. its at a friends house, who tells me the condition is pretty good, but will give me a run down asap.

for that price though, i would be happy with it falling to pieces.

well thats my one good deal for the year, so i can now go back to constantly losing auctions!

Congrats, Blackie! Which is your favorite out of the three? Fazzle will always be mine.
Speaking of which, I think there was confusion a little while back about what three modules I had called the Holy Trinity. It was C1/2 and Fazzle, those being tourney mods AND American-made. Not that ST1 sucks or anything.......... I realize Tsojconth was left out, but Holy Quadrinity didn't sound right, and Tsoj has consistently been less sought-after than the Trinity mods for some reason.

Looks nice, Jeff. How much did Spades have to pay the guy down at Kinko's?

Pffft. Kinkos would be cheating. I simply used ebay's little-known "time-travel" feature. Allowing me to buy things cheap because ebay doesn't technically exist yet. I just bought two "lost" Shakespeare manuscripts from the man himself.
