There are many examples of tripples+ in your shelvesI must point out that 'trolling ebay' means that you were buying extra copies on top of doubles when probability suggests that there were buyers out there who would like one copy. Going past about two copies is not very altruistic for increasing interest and participation in the hobby, as it necessarily means denying others materials - but I expect this aspect of promoting altruism in D&D is a minority opinion in this site.
