As new AD D R Series and RPGA modules R1 4 RPGA 1 4 | eBay

Leading us Up the Garden Path next?

"Hi there. These - and other D&D/AD&D modules which I will be auctioning shortly - were all acquired in the UK, between 1983 and 1986, when I was an employee of TSR UK Ltd. I don't have any receipts, but I do have an employment record! Hope that helps."

Well, if his ST1 is also shrinked, then we have a serious problem now don't we.- :wink:

Aside, that hugh_gee_rection name is the one that kreepontheborderlands was accusing me of using whenever he liabled everyone in his auction description a few months wasn't it. Guess it wasn't me after all now was it. :roll:

Here is a pretty solid looking 3rd print Woody:

Dungeons and Dragons 1st Edition | eBay

Seller also has all the supps to go along with it in varying prints.

I just bid and met the reserve price.

Not sure if this would be interesting or not. I was thinking it might have some historical reference. An RPGA Membership Directory from 1983 going for $1.04 and includes some Complete.Class Guide with it.....

WG4 on card, BIN $20...

Advanced Dungeons and Dragons | eBay

And another, same dealer?

IDW Dungeons Dragons: Modern Age (1992-Now) | eBay

Did he accidentally double list or does he have two?

Am I missing out on a great deal by passing it on, or is that price high? I'm broke, anyway...

Erm, not sure what to make of this guy... he's got a few interesting pieces, though... especially Judges Guild.

And every single auction title is the same :!:

I'm willing to give eBay n00bs a certain level of leeway, but ... c'mon ... exactly what strategy is in play here? Either I'm missing something, or this guy doesn't have all the spots on his dice ...

Is it just the angle or my ageing eyes, or does the front label on this 3rd print woody look larger than what you usually see?

You see correctly. The label on my third is bigger than the label on my first. I wondered about it myself, as maybe a possible way to distinguish boxes. The side label also appears on different sides. On the 1st Woody the label on the right, while the 3rd has the label on the left. I don't know about second print.

Crap. It has the UK mono D3 I'm hunting for, but I'm not bidding anywhere near that much for it. :evil:

Its not too crazy yet, at about $4.75 per item before shipping. Tha being said though there a lot of Role-Aids modules in there that usually dont go for sh*t, that causes the real problem there. Just my $.02

If I were buying big lots at the moment, I might throw $850-900 at it . . . However, that's an awful lot to chance on it. You should make out good if most items are in excellent condition like the seller states . . . in the end, I'd probably chicken out - there's just too much that can go wrong for that price.
