What do they say live by the snipe die by the snipe :cry: Moorcock Elric: Fiction & Literature | eBayWas outbid at-or-(slightly?) above that level within the past few months. Must admit that current one does look kinda fresh.(Not what you're wanting to hear, I'd guess?)

Perish the thought it might be worth playing! Yeah, a Wizard logo's a long way from the 1,000 copies Guidon printed, far less the first three privately produced editions; http://www.dawnpatrol.org/CSK/Introduction/default.aspx

Just a feeling, that...Marlith wrote:I want to play it so I am happy with a punched copy. I would have hesitated to play it if I had won so I am ok.Likewise There are quite a few people looking for a copy, but it's possibly not the easiest item to spot in eBay for those of us who just do casual searches.Heh; just spotted one of our new members on the <boardgamegeek> review thread; User Review | Elric | BoardGameGeek(The original review in WD rated it higher).

The seller jerked me around quite a bit on those. She actually approached me asking to see if I was interested in all 8 at $19.99 apiece as I was the current high bidder. I had planned to buy all 8 and then sell them to members at cost becuase while I was leading a few people emailed me saying that if I won they would want to buy one too. Well the seller and I both agreed to the sale, but then I got an email this morning saying "well someone else has now bid on it so there is nothing I can do about it" :x . Anyway, Mishra is looking for interested parties as he will be able to get as may as he wants for $31.00 a pop. If anyone is interested let him know, but you count me out of that.

Care to let me know about this. I was unaware.Glad someone here got one at a good price. Sorry not everyone that might have didn't. I still feel bad about this series of events. Not sure who the other buyers are then.I had tried to work a deal out like you had for the others at a lower price but they had said they had a buyer for all of them at the price I paid. Sorry again for unknowingly messes up a good deal.
