Don't know if this is a good price or not, but it seems to be in greater demand that the other boxed sets, and is probably far more useful if you use that campaign setting.

If it had still been shrinkwrapped the price would have been great. As it is already opened I'd say the price is a bit on the high side. However, it is tax return time so I'm sure someone will pick it up for the $100.

So this item is one that requires shrink to maintain it's value? Curious. I realise there is mention of damaged/scuffed corners, but being reletively new and also out of print, I would have expected the shrinkwrap to have had a negligable influence on price. Much like Rappan Athuk Reloaded or Wilderlands of High Fantasy hold their values despite missing the shrinkwraps.

I agree.
Around Christmas, I bought an nm copy of DCC#35 for $56 + $15 s&h + $8 for an nm Saga o/t Dragon Cult totalling $79 approx from the same seller, which I consider to be a fair buy. There was no shrink on either boxed set. I guess for me it's a collector's gut check on a product shift in GG's history (which I think will increase in value).

I've purchased a no-shrink nm copy of DCC#35 for less than cover with the same line of reasoning--no regrets.

I paid nearly $92 for a Minty shrink wrapped copy of DCC 35.
Also was able to get one for $46.... a few months later though it was slightly dinged.

World's Largest Dungeon from AEG

$49.99 with free shipping. You could do a lot worse than this offer.

I understand that there are some groups who have gamed through significant portions of this mega dungeon.

It is an interesting read. The authors get a fairly good theme going. It is certainly a chunk of gaming history.
