HOLY COW! The random pre-determined three digit number generator dice. I don't see the white one though. Very rare to see them in such good condition.


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

They look like something from a magic-trick set.

No. I think they're from the WWII RPG 'Camp'. Used to randomly asign the six digit number for your character's tattoo on his arm.

Here's an overall interesting lot, but it includes several coverless Dragon magazines with this description of the their condition, "All are unmarked and I found no tears."

I guess the cover being torn off doesn't count as a "tear." :roll:

And then the picture is of the figure's backside?  How much was this guy getting paid to list stuff? :roll:

What are normal business hours? 8-5? 9-6? 10-11 except every rotating Sunday after brunch?


Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

I wonder how many people will buy this and then be tick-off when they get the unpainted miniature that is really being sold.
