Presumably the crushing silence of no bids will straighten these people out.  

But then you never know, as a fool and their money are easily parted.

Not a bad price.  See, there is not disclaimer.  The auction must include the desk and the cabinet, and the wall, and the floor...... :roll:


May Eru's light shine upon you always.

I think it is sad when you read  the wife saying "We found it while cleaning the basement."

A guy who owns that much D&D stuff...and who obviously owned more than is pictured...since the OCE set is not complete...DOES NOT forget his "old D&D stuff."  No way.

Maybe he is watching this auction:

Of course, it would help if he actually had a  Mint! book.
