Cougar is now officially killing himself. Essentially $10 for a Midkemia publication. Even with the jacked up shipping he's lost money on the deal.

I asked Cougar about shipping for this item. I wondered if he would reply...hey...maybe I'd take a risk.

No reply.

i asked as well, since it was a mikdemia item... i wrote him: "dear dave, i can think to participate if only you are going to apply the real S&H for the item here above"...
i got as reply: "S&H is 5 pounds, it is up to you if you want to bid!"

Help me out here--how rare is this one? Is this something similar to ST1 Up the Garden Path or just someone badly overpricing something?

Pretty rare...

And yes...it is a Troll and Toad auction so it is a bit overpriced.

It's stupidly rare, but $2K is a little high. And if it really is "Near Mint Condition Softcover", then who knows if it is genuine.

Hmmmph . . . "The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale." So who bought it, and for how much?

These copies are from the same source that has been putting up the Near Mint copies on Ebay for the last couple of years.

Battle of the 5 armies

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0136349460

Not particularly interesting but for the sellers added comments - his pleading tone convinced me to put a bid in!

You can never have too much of something you didn't need in the first place.

That whole listing # of watchers to get more bids always surprises me..does it even work, or are people put off by it or actually put in a bid early on?

Here's a list of I.C.E. published boardgames (not sure how complete it is though):

In the seller's comments:

Being the seller, I obviously want to get as much money as possible but there are 11 of you watching this item so if you all try to rush in at the last minute some people are going to be disappointed and will likely have been willing to pay more than the final bid. Not the best outcome for neither the unsuccessful bidder or me!

Get bidding!

What a tool. That has to be one of the most idiotic things I've seen someone put in their auction.

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

Definitely put off. It just sounds whingy.

The notation says that this is not complete, but it seems like someone here should want it.
