I keep picturing Luke Skywalker driving an RPG-filled car through the bayou when I see your name next to an item.

I also worked at several game stores and comic book shops through out the US. During those years I went to many conventions, Gen Con, Origins, World Cons etc though the last one I attended was Dragon Con 3 years ago. Hamilcar

Over the years I accumulated quite a nice collection of D&D related material, with a smattering of other games thrown in for good measure, mostly TSR stuff. Several years ago, in a fit of stupidity, I got rid of most of my collection. I still play RPGs (twice a month with a regular group that I DM) but I no longer have some of the harder to find items that once graced my collection.Just recently I decided to start re-acquiring some of the stuff I used to have and maybe some stuff that I never had. I'm doing it slowly, as funds permit. I recently won an auction on Ebay for a 4th printing of the Supplement 1 Greyhawk book along with a copy of book 3 from the original set, The Underworld & Wilderness Adventures. I also acquired T1 The Village of Hommlet (green cover) and L1 The Secret of Bone Hill, and the red box D&D set 1: Basic Rules. Last night a local gaming store owner that I've known for years allowed me into his storeroom to take a look at what he had there. Thirty minutes later and with my wallet 80 dollars lighter I walked out with a 1st printing of Deities & Demigods that I would classify as VG to Fine condition, a 4th printing of T1-4 Temple of Elemental Evil in VG to Fine condition, a 2nd printing of D1-2 Descent into the Depths of the Earth in Fine condition, a 7th printing of D3 Vault of the Drow in Fine condition, a beat-up 1st printing of I6 Ravenloft, a good condition copy of I10 Ravenloft II: The House on Gryphon Hill, a 6th printing of the AD&D Player's Handbook in VF condition, an 8th printing AD&D Dungeon Masters Guide in VG to Fine condition, and a good condition Council of Wyrms boxed set. All-in-all, I was pretty happy with that haul! I feel like I've got a good start on rebuilding the collection.Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. Thanks for letting me spew about my recent finds.
