heh, heh... *looks suitably underwhelmed*

Thanks for running that comparison.
Hardly the world's greatest printing offset, is that? ;)

I just happened upon this one as I was sniffing around the burntwire brothers auctions. This one is another one from our old friend: :roll:

I am tempted to contact the second place bidder and offer mine up for his losing bid.

WOW!!!

Last year I puchased shrinkwrapped First Print Mono's of all 3 of the Giant Series Modules in a single acution for a little bit more that the winning bid for the single module in that listing and almost immediately afterward I was a little concerned about paying so much for them.

Now I am happy that I did.... 8) 8)

It seems to me that E-Bay is most certainly a sellers market right now.
Damn.... It just dawned on me that I'm not a seller. CRAP!!! 8O
Double Damn!! I am a buyer!! Double CRAP!! 8O 8O

I guess that also means that the good times are over for me an my fellow collectors/buyers......

What a bummer that is...........

I probably know a lot less about TSR's products than I should. I've been concentrating on non-TSR modules. Was there a difference between a US released module and a UK released one?


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Other than the GW Fairy on the cover, I am pretty sure no.

I wonder if they corrected the spelling, or left all the US spelling mistakes in situ'? :D

I noticed that too.  It is listed with part five of his story so it is at least six or eight months old.  Someone might buy it if the counters were unpunched but that is still stretching it a bit.  I think Mike's price of $45 is about right.

Time to update that price Guido.  :D

I actually picked up a set of G1,G2, & G3 all shrinked about 5 years on EBay for like $30 or $35 total. :P  I imagine that a lot of it was because it was a brand new seller who's first auctions were those modules. 8O I figure most people were afraid to take the chance on getting ripped off, so they stayed away, much to my delight. :D
