Cut up too. I have an uncut version, they usually don't go for a stupendous amount.

Yeah, I bought several sw modules from KB when they were liquidating their D&D stuff, including my GW modules, but I never bought spare FFs or other books that I already had at the time

Yep, I gotta be wondering what Dragons has to do with bondage gear. Although...that bondage gear might be entertaining if the other half is wearing it.

While I am tempted to upgrade, I think I'm better off sticking with my copy, no matter how bad it is (water damage). After all, I did spend only $5, which makes it a good find for me, no matter the condition.

If you would have, you wouldn't be wasting your time talking to us, you would be counting your money.

I remember bins full of them - late 1st edition and D&D Basic/Expert series modules - there were hundreds of them. There had to be at least 200-300 of them.

In Florida, Play World and Kids-R-Us where the local toy super-stores. And yes both had huge sections of D&D stuff. I'm talking about just as much as the game store if not more if; you're only talking TRS D&D items. Waldenbooks had a nice slice in their wall for gaming goodies as well, but there you could get TSR licensed products too like Role Aids, etc.

The thing I remember most about these treasure piles was how ravaged they looked. Kids would shop-lift the crap out these displays. Shrink-wrap would be crumbled up and stuffed in spots all around the area. One new kid in our game had no books one week, and the next he had almost all the Rule books. He admitted he liberated them from Play World and it was a joke lifting them. I wish I was standing in front of that display just for old time's sake. It's such a cloudy memory.

Exactly. Two points though. I only bought what existed at the two stores local to me (Approximately 500 or so of specific modules. The modules that were available were overstock of modules that did not move very well). I only took the ones that were in SW which was a vast majority of them since they had probably sat in a warehouse prior to being stocked.

Secondly, I subsequently sold a lot of them for a significant return. Not as much as some of them would bring today, but enough to pay for all of the ones that I kept and still turn a tidy profit. Actually, one of the places that I sold some to was a local shop in Richmond, VA, that I frequented, called "One Eyed Jacques". I suspect that they might still have quite a few stored away. They sell on eBay under the name "one-eyed-jacques"

I've bought from them, they're good sellers
