Complete copy of TSR's Divine Right for $55 shipped.  

Nice pickup!

I still have a 3-ring binder from that series, and I had a spiral bound notebook, as well.  When I used all the paper in the spiral bound, I pulled the cover off and trimmed the chaff.  I think I have a folder around as well.

Is there a website out there with pictures of all of them?

The second print B1 and third print D1 were a nice little bonus!

Nice find on the folders!

While everyone else was drooling over this shrink-but-bumped to hell one...

I snagged this unshrinked-but-very-lightly-worn copy.

Probably the least worn copy I've personally seen. Been trying to find a copy in this shape for a while. Would have preferred an earlier print (and a little better price), but this will do just fine.

Finally got me a Dungeons and Dragons Rules Cyclopedia.  I've been following them on eBay for some time and they've been going for $30.00 plus shipping if they are in any decent kind of shape and lots more if the binding is good, no writing and no smells.  I was looking on the shelves of my FLGS, and there's a Cyclopedia in very good shape or better.  The inside was particularly nice.  The binding was excellent and that seems to be what goes first on these things.  I ask him how much and he says "Cover price."  That means I got it for $26.50 total with tax.  While that's not a steal, I was pleased.

I had a chance to look through the whole thing tonight and was impressed with the volume.  It is well organized and thorough. I'd never seen one before but had heard how worthwhile it was.  I agree.

Rappan Athuk I - $3.98
Rappan Athuk II - $3.98
Rappan Athuk III - $3.98
Tomb of Absythor - $3.98
Vault of Larin Karr- $3.98
Lost City of Barakus - $9.98
Wilderlands of High Fantasy boxed set $12.98 (VF - box had some dings)

Most of the items except Wilderlands appeared new and unread.

All in all, very happy. I couldn't afford them, but couldn't let someone else get all those goodies, either.

Good Lord!  

You scored man!  Scored!  

Eat those ramen noodles with pride!

Our local Half-Price Books guys are either way too savvy or way too stupid about pricing.

(Except for the University District store in Seattle.  They have begun to catch on that D20 hardbacks and White Wolf products need to be 1/4 cover price or lower.)

They probably wouldn't recognize it. Okay maybe they would, but as a general rule they don't. The items ending up with collectible prices at the local HPB are those which are both well-known, and which are impressive in their own right, such as an extravagant old Avalon Hill boxed set.

Much of our hobby deals with the humble, mimeographed beginning. Publications like that tend to be priced cheap.

That's where I got my copy of Panzer Blitz.

I had a dry spell for a while, but....
