Yeah, I was watching it too, and it slipped past me because I was busy with something else.  I was ticked when i saw how cheap it went.  Congratulations, Andrew.

Won a first print D1 on eBay. Received it today and was very pleasantly surprised to find it is in VF+ (almost NM) condition. Asked the seller to take care in packing it, and she sent it in a box with packing peanuts. It pays to communicate with the seller.

It's all good. Yea, I paid a premium, but hopefully I won't be buying another D1 in my lifetime.  :D

And except for a couple of very small tears, almost as minty fresh as the one I got at Gencon last year...

I picked up a couple things from him on the cheap also. Hopefully those come soon so I can check out his condition grading and maybe pick up a few more of his next set of auctions.

What a blast!
Did you play a module or something homegrown?

If it's something published the DM has modified it for his campaign. We started in the Keep on the Borderlands as set in Greyhawk to the south of the Vesve Forest. We didn't go to the Caves of Chaos (not even sure if they exist in this campaign); instead we went west to investigate an abandoned dwarvish stronghold.
