That is a nice win. :wink:

I actually had those on my watch list and forgot when they were ending.

I was wondering how one dances while flat....

Then I realized that you are in England, and "flat" means "apartment." :lol:

I was happy to win this item earlier today -

cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt ... IBSA:AU:31

Especially so after being outbid on Frank's copy for three times the price yesterday.

Regards

Mike

Wow, nice win Mike. I wish I had seen that myself as I have been looking for one.

Wow, did these go cheap.

I had a cheap snipe set for them that I cancelled as I figured that they would have each been $10 to $15 more than that. Nice wins red_bus. Flush with all kind of cheap rares aren't you. :wink:

I won this nice lot that replaces many of my treasured originals that my ex-wife's cat destroyed. Not really special, but they are in better condition than I expected and the shipping was a steal (41 lbs. worth)

Thanks, it's been a good summer for me. My girlfriend called me at work a few weeks ago and told me to stop by the Goodwill on the way home. Not much D&D (Axe of the Dwarvish Lords, some other misc 2E things) but 11 Vampire: The Masquerade books, Mage: The Ascension core, Warhammer FRP core. All for $12. Hardbacks were .75, softbacks .50. I would have gotten more I just couldn't wrap my brain around the fact that the two foot stack I was carrying to the register was only going to cost me $12. I don't actually play any of these but still, good reading and maybe trade bait

may have overpaid for this, but i thought it was pretty funny that the final bid came up to exactly my max bid. to the penny. never thought that would happen

I don't think you overpaid. Considering how rarely those come up, it seems like you got a rather good price.

I think your price is fairly middle of the road but I think the market is a bit down right now. A while back you never would have seen prices like these:
