Here's another copy of The Dungeoneer Vol 2 Number 2 that looks better than the one I've got for sale:

Actually, you can't. I just received my order from FGU which I placed before Christmas and they couldn't completely fulfil my order on this book and made the note that they are now out.

You can still buy FGU's Royal Armies of the Hyborean Age from FGU.

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that they are out of stock of many of the items they list. Their old store on Long Island was completely disorganized and I doubt that has changed in Arizona. They're nice people, though.

I placed my order on December 15th. I hope they still had atleast one when they filled my order, but I suspect I'm out of luck.

We'll see about that. Just a bit of a warning if you do not live in the US, be prepared to pay a large brokerage fee when the package arrives or to refuse the package.

I was suppose to receive an email with the shipping details but was only sent one after it was shipped so I didn't know how much would even be charged for shipping (the rate is not given for international customers). The package was shipped by UPS which incurred a charge of $48.21 paid on delivery. The customs tax was only $6.76 and the rest a brokerage fee UPS charges just to bring the package across the border.

If I had received the middle email that they said I was going to receive about the shipping method and cost I probably would have cancelled my order if UPS was the only method or chosen a more expensive USPS method. The one saving grace here is that I think they only charged me $3 shipping as well but $48 is still a big unexpected hit. I sent them an email and will see how they respond.

You might be out of luck on the item - I placed my order on Dec 14th and took the last ones. However, if this was the only thing you ordered you are lucky it didn't ship because the brokerage fee would have killed you (as mentioned in my post above).

Damn, man, how many did you order? Will eBay be glutted with Hyborean Age?

As a side note, were your copies banged-up or in good shape?

I ordered 3 but only received 2 so I still have 1 to sell. Both my copies are in excellent shape.

I believe this is a Canada-only thing, the huge brokerage fee. If you live in Canada, do not under any circumstances let a seller ship to you via UPS.

Postal rates US to Canada are cheap (airmail is like $4 for the first pound), and there's no ridiculous brokerage fee.

Those are the books from the Rolemaster original box set.

BTW, I don't see any tournament modules in that lot.....?

Some of the published modules were run as tourneys, and I think some of the Dragon modules may have been too, if they're included with the issues.
