Howdy All,


The guy who is selling this is Howard Dawson, a long time member of Metro Detroit Gamers. I tried many years ago to get him to sell this - he said he had a box of them! He also said he had several Quest for Fazzlewood's.

He is listed on the back of the cover to Tsojconth as the person you can contact to get copies "of this and other Metro Detroit Gamer's modules". It had his address in Grosse Point, Michigan. I took a shot out of the blue, called information, got his phone number, and called him. Wonders of all wonders he answered the phone! After all of these years he still lived there.

Alas, after many letters and phone calls over a frustrating two and a half year period, he decided to keep it - said he had heard it might be worth something. :evil: Further, he was unable to find the "box of them" and he said, he'd "misplaced" the Quest for Fazzlewood.

Howard is responsible for naming the pre-rolled NPC's that appear for tournament use, save Arocken and Benedict. Those two were added by TSR, possibly Gygax.

One of my many failed attempts to wrest an antiquity from the bonds of the past.


Futures Bright,

Paul

Darn informed sellers!  :)  I'm mostly interested in seeing how much this goes for, my bid will be blown away shortly I'm sure.

UK versions. He also has D1-3 UKs.

I am not a completist, but still neat to see all of them together.


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

Damn.  I wish you had gotten the BIN.  I would have PM'd you looking for that Star Frontiers module, as my Star Frontiers set is missing it but has everything else.

Fez is semi-rare, but nothing else in there is worth a lot that I can see.

Here's a Silver Anniversary Box Set.  It actually includes an L3 and some other Silver Anniversary books.  Shipping is steep though.  And does it really take almost 50 pictures to describe this item?  And what's the point of a reserve if you state it in the item description?  Why not just make that the starting bid and avoid the charges?


It's got a bid at $110  8O

R1, R2, R3, RPGA3, RPGA4, and assorted other goodies from the same seller. Prices seem a tad high, but if you gotta have 'em:

Wow! And its not just the R's and RPGA's either, this seller has three pages of BIN prices that seem to me to be on the high side for each and every Item, though I admit to being almost totally ignorant on values for items other than TSR.

I actually hope he gets his BIN price for all of those items.

But it wont be from me..... :roll:

Although if the seller does get the BIN's on most of them it may have a possitive (upward) effect on all of our collectable Items..... :wink:  :D
