Picked up 50 issues of dragon mags at a dollar a piece today at a used book store. They are in good condition. And actually fills in a few holes.

Didn't know how much the shrinkwrap would help, but I knew this had to be worth more than $20:

Pretty happy with this. I figured the BIN wouldn't last long enough for me to get an answer to the question of whether the JG items (pictured, but not noted) were included.

Either way, I am happy with the OCE for $125.

Here are the maps.

See the last picture....

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Southern Reaches and Ghinor Highlands.

The seller seems to be a bit confused about what goes with what.

Luckily for you there are no bids yet...

In your shoes, I would ask the seller to pull those maps from that other listing before somone bids on it.

Thanks.

I hadn't noticed the maps in his other auction. Too bad that auction wasn't set with a BIN.

Honestly, it is a crap shoot in terms of getting the JG pictured items wit the OCE. I am perfectly happy with the OCE for that price. I think it is at least a fair price, if not a bit of a deal.

I will see when it arrives :wink:

OK.
Agree $125 is a decent price for the White Box Set itself.
Good luck and hope you do get the bonus items.
Then it would be a GREAT deal.

I sent a note yesterday telling the seller that the Maps in the Later AD&D Box Set Listing would normally go with the Wilderlands Books.
No reply yet.
Perhaps he will send the maps with the correct books after all.

UPDATE AGAIN:
Seller removed the picture of the JG Maps from the listing....
I suspect you will be quite pleased...

Glad to help.
But See if any of it arrives first.
If so, buy me a cold beer next time we see each other.

Maybe not the lowest price ever, but they come out at $90 a book, which I don't figure is too horrible... original price asked was $1500, so I like to think I did OK.

Quite a load of stuff to get all at once

Congrats
