Again I don't understand half of the specs. but these two don't sound as good as that one player we commented on a while back...I think that auction got taken down.

Those games just don't apeal to me for some reason.

Probably the same reason they dont appeal to me either...there really isnt much actual "role-playing" going on in these games. My problem is 90% of the players walk around talking like retards. Most of them want to con you out of gold and equipment or kill you outright.

Never played WoW but I have spent time playing and/or watching others play Ultima Online, Everquest, EVE Online, Star Wars Galaxies, and GuildWars. Everquest is one of the best games out of all of them IMHO. Star Wars was so buggy and boring that I am glad I never bought it and EVE is boring enough to put me to sleep.

I would much rather play a story-driven single-player RPG like Dungeon Siege instead.

I think I mentioned some time ago that I made an absolute killing with Diablo II by selling characters and equipment. I guess it is illegal now (like that matters to eBay). Blizzard has cracked down on it.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

AC8 Revenge of Rusak is actually labeled "AC3" on the cover. Apparently, someone at TSR forgot that the AC3 code was already taken by AC3 Kidnapping of Princess Arelina. In an attempt to correct this mistake, later copies of Revenge have a sticker stating "AC5, All New Dragon Tiles II" (which is also incorrect!). The contents are identical to non-stickered copies. The Magic Encyclopedia correctly lists this item as AC8. (Thanks to Ken Wellens for this info).

Edit. Figured I would just replace my wording with the site's text.

Oh...and four members here have these in their stores. Beyondthebreach, blackmoor, intelligator, and Badmike...who has a sw copy with the AC5 sticker.

Valuable? No.

But interesting and collectable, sure.

I've been looking for one of the AC5/AC3's to buy; it is the only one of the AC series I don't have.

The auction erroneously states that it is a 4th in Mint condition. Were either/both of those statements true, and the reference sheets included, the price wouldn't be too far off the mark. Unfortunately, it's clearly not Mint (maybe F/VF, hard to tell conclusively from those photos but there's some fairly obvious smudges.) And not complete without the ref sheets.

I figure the GH is the other $35.

Bad timing from my perspective. This one is in low enough condition for me to have put in a bid, and for once I had a pot of money accumulated -- but my wife brought home a $1700 tax bill. :evil:
