Most of it was common stuff, but I had a few "collector" level items, too, mostly early Judges Guild... but it was all stuff I'd play or read regularly, nothing in minty condition. Probably $50k all told, but now it's down to about $10k maybe, as it got whittled down one move or financial travail after another (not to mention a divorce)..

These days I keep pretty tightly to playing Castles & Crusades, HackMaster, and Lejendary Adventure, in the Wilderlands of High Fantasy, Known World of Mystara, and Lejendary Earth, respectively, though I've often used bits from other worlds like Greyhawk or even as esoteric as the Perilous Lands.

I stopped in there last summer for a quick look, but wasn't too impressed. What's the name of the one in Appleton?
