There are two Ebay that are nearing $30 with over a day or two before they end.With 4e being even heavier push on minis, I can only imagine these will become more in demand. Also, the nature of the dungeon tiles is that people use them and punch them out when they do, so finding one unpunched and/or still in shrink will become harder and harder.EDIT: I don't know if they increased the print runs on later sets or plan on reprinting these at a future date, or what the possible collection value of the other tiles sets could be. But I found it interesting none-the-less.

That means Necromancer will likely do a 4e version of Rappan Athuk, for example. From all the retailers I have spoken to, most of d20 stuff is worthless... so, I don't expect there to be many, if any, collectibles.

Still, I don't think most of d20 will be worth much more than original retail for reasons I stated three years ago upthread.
Plaag wrote:I agree with that somewhat, but also in part to the use of PDFs. Sure anything can be and probably has been scanned in, but d20 companies have created and sold good quality PDFs that are searchable or can be made printer friendly. Even if a book goes out of print it still is available to those that just want to have it in any form.ShaneG.
The box is similarly in unworn condition, and is undamaged except that something was spilled on the outside of the box top, and it dried before it could be wiped off, so there is an irregular area of about 2 square inches (13 square centimetres) that has a crusty residue. This area roughly coincides with the head of Orcus on the cover image; the cover image is still visible through the residue.

Or should we just toss the lot and hope we aren't saying 20 years from now "Yep, I had a copy of that Akrasia Thief of Time, but who knew?"Mike B.

Even as someone who only deals and collects 1E, I picked this up as reference material. The map making is up there with Thieves Quarter and the JG greats. Lots of detail. Plenty of expandability. Plenty of unexpected delights. Good old fashioned D&D mapping like you did in your school jotters.You can buy the PDF when it's on sale. It'll cost you $39.99.
