*rofl* :lol:

The picture is pretty poor, but I do hope those are OCE (C) booklets, rather than 5th prints. Otherwise I'd hate to think what might happen should someone ask that question...

I got myself all in a dither on that one last night before he posted the pictures. I was hoping with that type of BIN it might have been a woody, but low and behold it wasn't. :roll:

My thoughts exactly. However, the way these things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if some idiot goes for this...probably not the BIN price, though.

Couldn't have been much further from that?

Dull colors would tend to indicate the latest OCE print and the Wiz Greyhawk is good to see in that context! Is a pretty poor pic, though.

*points to your post above*

In the speling buuk it's "lo and behold" (or even "lo' and behold", since it's short for "look") in current usage. *jab*

Then again, when referencing this particular auction it very well could be "low". :wink:

I know there's not a lot of love here for White Wolf stuff, but can you resist the "Vampire the Masquerade Biggest Collection Ever"???

I think what he meant to say was "What a collection, hard to find anywhere in Tazmania. Make it yours!!!". Every Half Price Books in Dallas has multiple copies of these books going for about $6 apiece. They won't even take them in trade they have such a large surplus of them.

Here was his reply when I asked him about the $200 Blow Me Now:

Well, yes two hundred, if you buy it now. I did not want to hurt my chances of a great auction by making the buy it now option too low. If you want to bid, then bid. If you feel that you have to have this COLLECTORS ITEM, then buy it now and store it in an air tight container. It's up to you. Thanks for asking.

Thank GOD it is a COLLECTORS ITEM, and NOT just a STUPIDLY OVERPRICED module. I can't IMAGINE what a STEAL it would be at $200!!!

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.
