There was a thread a while back about Warriors of Mars and the bidding fiasco last time

about1402-0.html

I am looking for one but am probably only willing to pay $150 for it.

*shakes head* Feel free, mate.

You could've bid $300 last time and saved us the hassle...

You're just following the false trail he left last year. If I remember correctly, ALL those high prices were owed solely to him waving the stick above the dog's head and asking it to jump higher.

Going back and looking after you've bid ain't the best tactic, IMHO.
*shrugs*

Warriors of Mars

Mars wrote:What is a Warriors of Mars really worth? I have been looking for this one for the past couple of years now and a few have come up on Ebay. I think about a year ago they were in the $100 range but since then there seems to be a number that have been selling in the multi 100 range. Is this just a high point in the market for this item?

There is one listed right now

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 5938917952

where the seller probably has a reserve of $350 since that seems to be what the seller bought it for about a month ago (although they claim to have had it for 8 years and paid $350 for it then)

"although they claim to have had it for 8 years and paid $350 for it then"

(Notice the crappy text edit on the latest auction...).

Heh.... snap.

Thanks, Mars. (Guess I'm a bit slower at typing!).

People with short memories and deep wallets...



Non-D&D TSR - Warriors of Mars
"I know that there was another copy sold on Ebay. I beleive it went for about $50-60. It is also mentioned on a few TSR items from that era."

"8O Wow! Final bid was $199."

"About ther $ 199, I'm repeating myself but the right price for an item is the price somebody is willing to pay for it."


Or, rather, what the buyer thinks it's worth after some seller waves a copy around for $450, descending, for long enough for them to see dollar signs...

*waits for the next one to appear*


(Apologies if I'm sounding harsh....).

59 later Polys including #69-110, 113-124

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 5954824270
Just opened at $5 (10 day auction).
... Usually go pretty low, but the last time I left mentioning a large (albeit lower numbered) lot until late in the auction, the current high bidder wasn't too chuffed! ;)

FirstQuest (vinyl), half-decent looking copy;
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 4070841193
$30 with 1 3/4 days to go

eBay listings
1981 Dragon calendar, $2
ATWM #3, $2; both under 2 days to go
(Interestingly the 1980 calendar with writing is moving along quicker than the minty copy earlier in this thread; maybe they've seen Noble Knight's prices...)

"my puppy got the white box (sorry)"
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 5954778799
(that's what thanks they get for their user name!)
Interesting reaction to the BIN request- pretty close to the mark, IMO- but not sure what happened to the second box...

I've locked this thread due to the high volume of replies (slows the forum down).  It'll remain here for research purposes, however.  In the meantime, there's a fresh eBay thread currently posted.
