Here is some more intersting bidding:

All the CD-Roms (Core Rules, Dragon Mags Archive, Interactive Atlas) have increased strongly in value over the past months. But what you pointed out is probably the most stupid bidding war I have ever seen.

What you all don't think paying $275.00 for 1 CD is a good deal?! :roll:

And to think, I have that stoopid CD somewhere, and thought it was garabage. 8O

I have it too, and I still think that. It is difficult to read/use the maps that come with it and the map making program sucks even more. I wish I had the package :( so I could get something near that price when I list my copy..... Along with the Core Rules and the Expansion CD's.....

Of all the CD's I bought, the compiled Dragon was the only one I avoided, wish I had that now, seeing those prices.

Yep, I forgot about that one. I have it too. How much would you offer for it....? :lol:

I guess I will list it at the same time as the other two sets. Perhaps not, as I had been hoping to get copies of the first 100 issues of Dragon for my collection first. That is proving to be a far tougher deal than I had hoped/thought it would. But, once I have them in hand (So to speak), I will certainly rid myself of that CD set as well.

By then the sets will likely be going for 10 cents or so in Mint Condition sealed in the box (Which of course I do not have) :roll:

I doubt the Dragon CD will go that cheap ever, having them on disc would be handy.

Especially when you consider that this one went completely untouched:

cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem& ... T&rd=1

Am I missing something?!?

lol, I was interested in the one that was not bid on, so I asked the seller if she was going to re-list and if so, was she going to place a BIN on it.
She did relist with a BIN and I used it.

Yeah, I saw that too. That bidder jpwankenobi has been involved in lots of stupid bidding action recently. :roll:

Yes, but at $89, I need to list the rest of mine. I still have six of them with the "forbidden Mythoi". Yep that sure is some rare stuff, better get your copy while you still can.....
Before they get to $1000 each. :roll:

I think I see the "problem" - it's listed as "AD&&D" - Advanced Dungeons and and Dragons.

The extra cash is going towards that extra "AND". Y'see.
