Yay! I won

. And at a really decent price, too. Thanks again Deadlord - much appreciated!

Only need to track down Gods, Demigods & Heroes now, and my little collection of OD&D supplements is complete. It's a glorious mish-mash of different printings and mintness (or lack thereof, lol - my Swords & Spells has indeed seen better days) but I long ago decided not to go for mint 1st prints, for that way madness lies... :wink:

I'll check and see if I have a GDH, Kamelion. I believe I have one left.

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

I often wonder what the photo albums of people like this look like. Are all their friends and family blurred images as well?

I can see the caption below the photograph ...

I don't understand why a lot of sellers just don't scan the covers of the items...often it brings out a lot more detail, and unless you are jumping up and down on the copier as it scans, it shouldn't be blurry.

I used to scan everything, now I just take pictures.. it's a lot quicker. I suspect others feel the same way. Then again, my scanner is like 10 years old.

I'm a lazy ass git. I just have to lean over and push a button to scan...while I actually have to get up and move to the kitchen to take a photo, and then transfer the image to my computer. Waaaaaaay too many steps there....

Extremely nice looking 10th Anniversary collectors set:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Granted the item itself is a major disappointment, but they are pretty hard to find. I think that I have seen a total of 3 sell in the last 3 years and two of them were Draco's.
