Oh yeah! All from a 0 Feedback person. I would seriously look at finding a reseller with a good reputation to sell it on consignment if I were selling stuff of that caliber. Would most likely make more money that way too as the zero feedback has to make some bidders think about the money they are spending.

Ya this kind of worried me also since they have been a member almost 6 years and this is the first items they ever list. They are probably ok just stuck out to me also.

Is your computer too old to run Neverwinter Nights? Here ya go.

Anyone know a way to get a fast computer to run older games like that?

*loooove the old gold-box games*

This works great for almost all of the older DOS/Win95/98 games.

DOSBox, an x86 emulator with DOS

Misc other items

OK, I mentioned in passing that 4th(-) print OD&D sets often come with interesting "extras", but that beats anything I've seen before, hands down...

Re. "About 40 sheets left The Character Archaic". What's the deal with that?

Yeah, I noticed that too. I wonder if it's a misprint (4 pages left?

). Or does it refer to the hex sheets?. As in "D & D Hex sheets. About 40 sheets left <missing period> The Character Archaic."?

I suspect he means the Hex Sheets, not the Character Archaic. If its the CA, then he is actually extra sheets.

Never saw that happen before.... :lol:

Aside, I am surprised that am still on top after 5 hours even with the bids that I did place.

Hah, good prediction seer!

On this one I think my 2nd max was $925, and wouldn't have had time for a counter beyond it.

*reads again*. Ah, that makes sense. Sorry, was in a bit of a rush.

What's that bit about the 1977 edition, though? Did that still have the same cover sheet, out of interest?

You say?

Sorry, I still don't get it on the usual heavy bidding before the high res scans have been posted?

Looks like two or three possible marks (one sticker residue?) on the Pharoah for starters. Plus obvious questions on the Character Archaic, Battle of the Five Armies and OD&D supps. (how many staples in that Eldritch?

)

Or have y'both already done all those?

Seller(obviously the writer :wink:

) has an Original Dungeons & Dragons Cartoon Script up, as well as his own his hand written notes from one Episode of the cartoon series. Very high Starting price, but may be worth it:

Not the greatest condition...might be a cheap grab for someone.
