Just happened to come on as you posted your link. *<seriously considers placing a bid>*BTW, I knew you had this, but 2 questions. 1) Where did you happen to find this one? 2) How come you are selling it?

Unable to find more info on that person, unfortunately.Sigh, I was once in London, Ontario. Took a trip there to hit a used bookstore, that supposedly had an OOP bok a friend f mine was seeking. That was back when I lived in Michigan. We never found the store, now I wish we had looked longer. I might have gotten lucky (though this was many years ago).~jeff

WFT?!Hi everyone. My name is Mark. I played D&D in the early 80'sand I am from Columbus, OH. I live in Los Angeles now and Ilove LA. I have always been a collector of old and rare D&D.I plan on getting the tournament modules of C2, Tsojoconth,and Tamochan. I already own an Orange shrinkwrapped B3plus original Artwork from the Grenadier D&D Lead figure boxes,and first runs and other rare Grenadier stuff. I think the Tsojoconth is worth 1601.00 and ALOT more in mymind given it's condition and who it's coming from. I was quoted an offer to buy a mint condition ST1 for $4500.00 I thought that was a little high, since the last copy I saw sold here was for around 2850.00 any thoughts?Mark

To answer your last question 1st, there were 2 sales for ST1 here over the last 6 months. The 1st one went for a confimed $2500.00. The second one that was sold was never annouced publicly as to the final price, so I am not sure what it was. Either way IMHO $4500.00 is way way too high. As a matter of fact there is only one person that I can think of that would put a price on one for that much, and he is the much reviled Cougarrinard. As far as the Tsojconth auction goes, IMO the price is high, especially considering the last one that this same seller sold about 10 months ago went for an est $1100.00. Two others, although probably in not in as nice condition as this one, were sold at this years GenCon for $450.00 in VG & $750.00in NM. With all that being said though, it most certainly your own money and who the hell am I to tell you how to spend it. I am sure that others will be chiming in their $.02 as well.

deimos3428 wrote:$6000 USD is an entirely reasonable price for a rare, if I were you I'd snap up any copy you see under that. :twisted: (Ok, I'm slightly biased at the moment!)
