Hi there, how about an introduction.

Are they 1st prints, though? What are the TSR product numbers?

Let mirth prevail!

I'm just comparing the pictures with the ones here in the Misc section. They look like 1st printings to me, but it has been a long time since I actually had one of these in my hands, and they weren't collectors items then.

Check these stickers out. Too bad they are out of the metallic ones. Those would be worth it.

I am now.

Now that's a definite piece of gaming history right there.

Be sure to factor the horrific shipping cost into your bid ...

It's a nice item; no doubt of that. I'm just sayin' ...

My general rule is "Don't even think of touching the computer -- let alone eBay -- after coming home from the pub".

Nothing exceptional, but not too bad a lot.

Mighty forces are gathering around this listing, an Italian edition D&D Red Basic Set in shrinkwrap (it's years from the last time I saw one on eBay.it

). The battle will be glorious but, alas, only one will prevail :wink:

http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... :IT&ih=011

This seller has various other highly collectible Italian D&D products for sale: Expert Set. CM1 and the Italian edition of Orcs of Thar - all shrinkwrapped. Yes, the battle will be bloody and many will fall

I don't understand this rule...you guys don't eBay from your Blackberries while still in the pub?

Did you know of the huge sale, a few years ago, in Piombino? A place found a stock remain full of shrinkwrapped boxes of the Italian red, blue and green sets, and sold them in sets of three (one red, one blue and one green) at 5 euros per set. It was an assault... unfortunately, nobody told me!

Early print, not the later one with code on the upper right corner.

TSR Mountains of Mirrors puzzle in shrink, three days to go and bidding is at $56.

** expired/removed eBay auction **

I see burntwire has 12 puzzles up for sale and bidding is currently ranging from $40 to $80!!!!!!! I often see TSR puzzles up for auction and they frequently pass in without bids. Are these more rare than the usual fare?
