How rare is this item?

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Never heard of it

Is it really worth $91.00 or more?

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

More. It's along the lines of Dwarven Glory in rarity.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

I recall getting my copy for over $100 so it's a pretty high demand item. I'm not sure how game-worthy it is, but the cover illustration might have allure for some...

You must be happy with that price Gus!

I think it would be funny if Lofenloc and FantasyMuseum were the same person with a split personality

They've been at it like this for the past few weeks.

It was a good deal at that price. I think that's only the 2nd copy I've ever seen, and it looked great.

Let mirth prevail!

Thanks for the nice plug, William, in Triad Sourcebook

And, FWIW, your HKAT! rulebook is a 1st edition, 2nd printing, not a 1st printing. If you have any copies of Swords of the Middle Kingdom that you're planning to sell, we only printed about 750 copies or so, so they're the rarest of the EHP books we did.

I'm glad to know you noticed that.
I'll be keeping my copy of Swords of the Middle Kingdom due to my interest in Chinese history. HKAT! looks like fun but I'm not interested in comtemporary/modern RPGs, so hopefully someone else will have some fun with them. I believe Frank (exTSR) bought my other copy of the HKAT! rules in a previous summer auction.

Nope, I wish they would go away. :cry:

But, then again, I bet they wished I went away. :lol:
