Sold for $150. Wow.

Nice in that it's clean and complete, even with the ad card, but that's just way too high. Congrats to the seller!

I think a lot of people have forgotten that some of these were not as limited as others. Nanorian and Fez are fairly common for small press stuff. Finding them still in shrink is not that long of a wait.

.... and both have sold mint in shrinkwrap for less than that in the past.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Definitely agree. Beastmaker has been showing up a lot (relatively) over the last year or so too.

Kobold Hall and Blasted Land are indeed limited, but even allowing for attrition, there are probably 600+ copies of each out there. Compare that to the number of people who know about them and want them...

Only 750 of Kobold Hall and 1000 of Blasted Land printed. No such claims on the others - probably a few thousand of each. These were advertised for years after they were published. Much like the R-series for TSR, they had so many they were trying to blow them out at discount prices years after initial release.

Never have seen a BIN for one of these for just $10 USD ($4 US Shipping).

If you do not have this and do collect RuneQuest, then this is the one you will want to nab.

Even missing 1-2 sheets, this is a steal of a deal.

Seller has lots of other on-going listings of various RPG items.

One is a nice looking Rules Cyclopedia, but it is already over $40.

Hey everyone,

I'm not a RQ collector so not sure if this might be of interest.

Collectible Runequest Role Playing game - purchased 30 years ago (1982)

** eBay auction listing blocked. Please enable cookies in your browser for this site and for eBay! **

Looks to be in great shape considering how old it is.

Best regards,

Ronald

The game book has 77 pages. The book is soft cover. It measures 8 1/2" x 11". The cover has light surface wear. Some light aging to the cover seen on the edges. The back cover has left bottom corner curling (see photo). All pages are intact. No separate map found. I don't know if there was a map or not? The book has possibly been used and played with. No pen or pencil marks found. The book is in good shape. Please don't expect a mint book. The book is sold as found!

Right you are

Too bad, I don't think first edition Ciy of Carse comes around that often.

Resurrecting the usual PDF debate - Is it immoral for people to trade PDF versions of maps and map booklets for all the items that cross eBay sans maps. After all, the seller has not bought the maps, but, the IP owner, the author, the artist and the original publishing house are also receiving nothing from the transaction anyways.

So, is the distribution of PDF maps wrong? Surely if people knew they could lay their hands on the maps, it would ease the sale of items without maps.
If it's not wrong, then what about other player handout books?
What about a person who is missing the centre pages of text?

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.
