I bid but not whole-heartedly.

If you look at the signatures on the right, the top one is Ernest Hams who did KABAL so I suspect it is an RPG.

Ah, fun... Which of you two guys (presumably ;)) armtwisted the seller into changing his shipping policy while my back was turned?

I had the misfortune of winning early on and ended up with my wins being unilaterally cancelled because he wouldn't combine shipping by any means and every single item had to be paid at the full, individual p&p cost via eBay's Global rip-off scheme.

I can't understand sellers who don't want to combine shipping. They miss a lot of sales...

That is strange.  It doesn't look like he is using "eBay's Global rip-off scheme" for Canadian shipping.

Check the completed sales; e.g.


** expired/removed eBay auction **


I was facing something like $60+ plus two lots of customs fees for three small zines and a paperback book, separately charged; $80++ in total for maybe 750gms packed, IIRC.
Sent them several workaround suggestions but received no response, although I presumed they were acting on one of those when they cancelled three out of the four items (with the remainder to be paid direct to PayPal, was the idea). ...Then they cancelled the other item a few days later. :roll:

Frustrating.
(First, as I'd already promised the book elsewhere having given away my previous copy to a board member here. Second, since the seller - as I'd guessed - was on my research list, which went goodbye in the process).

I was pretty pleased to have found these... somehow I must have missed the Kickstarter & these stretch add-ons - Castle & Crusade versions of the original D20 Troll Lord Games modules from the early 2000s.  I'm a big TLG fan and love retro reprints and these re-imaged covers.  Fun find  :)

They're obscure but I wouldn't say they're very rare, maybe "common rare." Pricing... well, that's trickier seeing as there's likely not much demand for them. Probably $5 - 15, for me, each. Also, having the original After Winter's Dark in there would be helpful for value.


Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

Yes, I am looking for them but will not pay more than $10. I have only one, and I bought it $5 on ebay IIRC.

Was there a reprint of After Winter's Dark too?  I only have the D20 printing from 2000.

The one I refer to is this one:

amazon.com/After-Winter-Fantasy-Campaig ... 097023970X

Funny that one can find it on Amazon undersold.

It was released in 2000, but it is not a d20 product. Nor are any of the S&S-line.

There is a C&C version as well.


Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

Someone got a bargain.


** expired/removed eBay auction **



I totally forgot to bid. I only have the 2nd ed. and miss the box without the yellow flag.

Someone got a very very good bargain. I've been looking for a boxed set for a looong time.

One day I would really like to sort out the mess that is Kabal as far as all the different versions of books and boxed sets and combinations - although I don't know if it will be as orderly as I want.

I'll check and see if I stashed away any extra copies of this one - at one point I had over 15 sets.
