Nice looking Eldritch (1st or 2nd print), but US only. Can't wait for someone to post a Canada only auction... :evil:

G1, G2, G3, D1, D3, S2 all appear to be original shrink and pretty good condition (?)

Can't say for sure but does not look like the original shrink to me.

Guess someone should have bid on it. I let it slide because I have recently been on a buying tear and I have to get caught up on the selling end.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Can't say for sure but does not look like the original shrink to me.

Because...?

Sorry, I can't find anything that era/format/US print to compare with.

G1/2/3 looked pretty good for "originality"; from the "shape" of the shrink, peel-back at corner, price tag, etc.
D1/D3 looked at least half-OK.
Wasn't so sure on S2 and A1.

The seller's other items were kinda miscellaneous, but generally good condition. Couldn't see any indication why they should be trying to fake original SW, far less with slightly different characteristics for the old vs. newer stuff.

Oh, well, I guess people will be asking, anyhow

One of those nice UK softies. Seems like they're hard to find in fully intact condition.

Looks more like a 5th, but image hides where the price would be. (Does state 1976). Reasonably sure that's not a 1st Blackmoor, anyhow.

It's a 4th or less. No registration mark. Can't see the product code, though. Do you ever think people read our threads and hide this stuff on purpose? :roll:
