To borrow a phrase from the World Poker Tour, I'm guessing the bidder is "on tilt" -- maybe he lost a few auctions recently and he's just not gonig to take it anymore! :lol:

I don't think the price is completely ridiculous, considering everything is in pretty good condition...that's the 2nd nicest T1st DMG I've seen so far. I just inquired about the PHB flyleaves, as sellers have a habit of getting the printings wrong, after quickly consulting the Acaeum pages -- that might be a 1st PHB, and the bidder knows something we don't!

Hey Al,

This 2nd print MM arrived today:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %3AIT&rd=1

WTF???!!! The mother-freakin' dragons are colored in, the cover is scuffed, and there's writing inside the front cover!

Nah, just pulling your chain. Seriously, it's a beauty! And thanks for the fast shipping. I gave it to my son today, and he loves it. He immediately plopped down in a chair beside the fire and leafed through it. His very own Monster Manual! What a great deal.

:D :D

It does say that in the description, Stephen.

i thought i was very honest with the description there!

if the three dragons were not coloured inside, i would have kept that, cos it was quite a nice firm MM for a softie.

hope your sone likes it and am glad its in a good home!

Al

ps. btw if i recollect, quite some time ago i bought that off coug for 99p, so hey i made a profit!

(managed to wangle shipping it through work too so shipping was free for once! good job really as it was more than i quoted

)

pps. jessica has her own rulebook set too. her mum wont let her have the books in her house 8O how lame or what?

Al

Please be very wary of dealing with dungeondad. He is a known shiller. :evil:

Don't tell me Dungeondad is a schill! Can't you leave me in ignorant bliss? My wife is trying to get me this:

cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem& ... T&rd=1

Son of a buick!

Geez I wish I hadn't seen that... :twisted:

I don't doubt B's word, but it looks like he isn't shilling at the moment, anyway...

I'd just watch for the first "0" feedback bidder who just happened to become a new ebay member in that past couple days. As a rule of thumb I generally stop bidding once one of those pops up in the bidder list :?

B is right, he is indeed a shiller.
