6 days left with an opening bid of approx $34.89 (UK auction).

That's odd -- the same seller seems to have the rest of the contents of the Silver Anniversary boxed set, too.

It arguably makes sense to split up something simple like a white box (*waves to Grayson*), but I think he'd do better selling this item whole...then again, I've been wrong many times before.

Actually, I'll be doing the same thing with a Collector's box soon too

L3 is worth as much as everything else put together, heh.

But, mine'll be store-stock, so I can set the price I want and then just sit on it until someone ante's up

6 days left with an opening bid of $1.00.

Anyone from outside of the US, be aware that the guy charges $20 for filling out the customs forms. :roll:

"International shipments will incur an additional $20 non-refundable fee for the required Customs paperwork. This fee will not be refunded, even in the event of an item being DOA."

Might get worse from there, I stopped reading at that point.

I think you've convinced me. I will de-shrink my Anniversary and sell the items separately.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

Yeh, that 2-3 minutes required to fill out your average customs form is a killer.....

Hmmm. I sent him an e-mail asking about the $20 and I got:

Oops, that was supposed to be removed. No I do not charge for customs forms, that is very rare, but happened twice in a row awhile back which is why I had put that there, because the customers were purchasing from some unusual country and requested the items be sent by specific means which required me to fill out all sorts of forms, which got returned and I had to fill out all sorts of other forms...took me about 4 hours or forms work to get it sent properly, which is what caused that to come up.
Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I will remove it promptly.

Thank you,

In addition to all the other problems: check out those sharp six-siders that Gamma World never came with. Where are the TSR polys that should be seen in that photo?

If anyone's interested, there's a better version of early GW up on eBay right now. I know the seller; he's a great guy.

This looks legit to my untrained eye. Going to keep an eye on this one.

Looks legit enough, not that I've ever seen a forged white box...though it is curious that the printing on the side of the box is so mis-aligned...anyone seen one like this before?

I wasn't referring to the possibility of a forged box. I was thinking that the shrinkwrapping looks bona fide. But I noticed the misaligned text, too. I haven't seen many white boxes but I've never seen one like that. On the other hand, misaligned print in general is a common phenomenon.

Mine has a somewhat misaligned side box as well.

"The original package was taken off to make sure all the items are still inside. We still have the original plastic that it came with. We re-wrapped it with plastic once the pictures were taken.... Victor"

(...what can I say?)

You're quoting the seller?* Crikey. Well, that's my untrained eye for ya! The box does look as though it's spent its life covered in shrinkwrap but knowing that the original shrinkwrap has been removed kind of takes the fun out of it. I can't believe I just wrote that.

* Ah. I hadn't updated the page in my browser. I see it now. He's got it back to front though; they re-wrapped it before the pics were taken. Anyway, it's still an excellent OCE set.

Ditto. Not as misaligned as the one shown, but not too far off.
