Uhm, without the price on the covers of the booklets, and without "4th printing" on the inside of the covers, wouldn't this qualify as a 5th printing?

Very surprised at the price. I guess it's the Chainmail pushing it up, but even so...

Good evening to you, Stephen.
Yeah, it's a 5th as I pointed out in my question which they finally responded to!
(Unless it's an ultra-rare 4th-/5th hybrid with a later title page from M&M. *jk*

)

*nods*. Is the Chainmail... unless I've missed something, myself!

Oh no David, I was not referring to you, I was refering to the high bidders high bids.

Stop! :lol:

Geez, that seller better send you a Christmas Card or something, considering you personally have made him an extra $250.00 alone.

Ah; OK.... Yeah, surprised there haven't been so many complaints on eBay about how the multiple high-bids tactic- which used to be useful for setting up a "smoke screen"- is now less-than-worthless with the revealed bids system.

Am dropping out myself, anyhow.
Was one thing having a probe to see how strong the high bids were and determine whether there was a pattern; positioning the auction for the snipes (a reversal of the usual between myself and aneoth, phps)... but if the same bidder's going to keep coming back again-and-agin I might start to feel guilty!

And just remembered where I'd seen the high bidder's name before... It was Chainmail last time, too... :roll:

(btw, ~$150 not ~$250, please...

Although the larger favor was that question, since the seller can now point to the "hidden" text and disclaim that it was sold as a first print, since those bids came in after the response).

*leaves <juliabulia> to sock it out with giorgio...*

Thanks for confirming, David. Guess I missed that one, skimming through here.

You're up pretty late, aren't you? Can't resist watching the fun, I guess.

I've never liked 10 sided dice. I wonder why he didn't have any 20 sided though.
