I think it depends, how deep is the box?

If my dim memory serves me correctly, there was a 'thick' box (about 3 inches deep) and a thin box (maybe 1 inch deep).


That is a second print box.  Although not as good a win as a first print box, that is still a pretty good win. For reference check here:

Did I do alright on this guys?
I'm not really a collector of the AD&D action figures but I thought this would make a fantastic display?

I just picked up a copy of The Star of Kolhapur at my FLGS for the outrageous price of $2.00.  :D

The copy of probably in about Fine condition based on Acaeum grading conventions.  I thought it was a cool find.

well, this post is a question rather than an assessment:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


was it a nice finding or not? ...is it boxed set complete? is it a 1st print or a later one? ...i know that box conditions are not superb, but i thought it was a nice deal anyway... can you give me your opinions on what i did???  :roll:

EDIT: eheheh... a stupid error in copy&paste...  :oops:

Axel

as you are italian and not english i will explain :D

if the auction was still running, i would have said IS.

as the auction had ended by you doing a BIN, i said WAS.

it WAS for sale. do you see? :)

ehi al, what shoud i see? i'm not there with you...  :?

ok, seriously, dont know english so deep but i feel (of course if you were serious) that my concern i wrote you goes beyond the language used: you wrote "it was a BH set" ... you didnt write "it was a BH auction"... the set *IS* for it is still existing... tha auction *WAS* as it ended... (or, at least, this is what in italy should be correct!)
