That insert in green was used frequently. It has popped up in all kinds of boxed sets from that general period. Most notably, it is frequently in Holmes sets.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

World of Greyhawk boxed set in pretty nice shape for $9.99 plus shipping... Don't these usually go for quite a bit more? Did I score?

You scored! I got a nice copy for $13.99 or so plus shipping, and I was very happy. It depends, but they'll go from $19.00 to $29.00 usually.

Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Cool!
It might be the only post-1983 TSR product in my collection

Nothing too special. The DDG is a first print cthulhu. But the gem for me was the WoG folio. It is a second print, I think. The "TSR 1980" is where it should be for a second, but it is kind of smeared, like the description for a first. I need to take a couple minutes tonight and make a closer inspection.

Regardless, I am happy.

Nice job on the Dungeon! And you can never have enough dice - even if you never use them

Indeed. Those are nice dice at twice the price.

They had 3 sets available, so I grabbed two... one to use and one to keep.

Some might consider the price pretty high but it works out great for my personal collection.
