** expired/removed eBay auction **


When I was watching out for that one a while ago it came up fairly infrequently, though I haven't been watching of late.




Yes these ENWorlds seem to get gobbled up everytime Aaron at NK gets them in too.  He had all 4 in stock just recently and now he is out again.



Also don't forget Knights of the Dinner table #117 and #126 which contain Deep Ruin and Blackstone's Maze respectively.   :)



Cheers!

Other limited items might be the original 3.0E versions of DCC#1 and DCC#2, just because the line was new and unproven then.  Were they a small print run like the 1E DCC#12.5 to test the waters?  They were reprinted later due to demand, but with different covers and updated to 3.5E.  You don't see them often, and I would think as the very first modules in the DCC line that no DCC collection would be complete without them.

Cheers!

I agree about the 1st print of DCC#1....I have one and I think it may have legs in collection circles...!  :D   I'd also hazard that perhaps the tail end of the series (48-5, 52) or any popular dungeon not reprinted might one day enter collectible status.

FYI, the following non-limited edition DCC's are already sold out (with no more in sight, I'd imagine):

#1, 3, 16, 22, 31, and the Gazetteer (#35).  I don't know how limited the quantities were before the sale, but I do know the Gazetteer has sold out since the sale began.

Umnn... a couple of weeks ago, I went to the sight specifically to obtain DCC 35 and it was listed as being sold out then.

Perhaps the sale had already started and I was not aware of it though.
They do have a somewhat haphazard way of cruising the web site pages and I have gotten lost more than once there.  :oops:

It was sold out before last week, as was the DCC 30 Tournament Edition.  Both of these are still available at the Plano Lone Star Comics if you are interested.  Unfortunately they are still retail price and not the 50% off.  :(

Sorry guys, must have been tracking another site...I was sure I saw it available the first time I looked at the sale.

Castle Whiterock is still available though.  Of course it might cost as much to ship it as it does to purchase.  It's a heavy mother.  And to think I lugged it around the convention center in my backpack for half a day last year.  I'd like to see Al run across the Sahara with that.  8O  :lol:

my backpack in the sahara, at its heaviest (ie the start of the week), was 17lb appx. by the end of the week, it was about 10-11lbs.

that castle whiterock box is nothing man, believe me!

Are we nearly there yet?

One of my favorite memories of Gencon....

We run in as soon as the doors are open....King, Al, Martin and I hurry to the Goodman Games booth to purchase the 1st edition module they have for sale. King catches a look at Castle Whiterock...it catches his fancy...and so the FIRST THING he buys at the convention is that 25 lb monstrosity...for the full price mind you!  And so because we didn't want to go IMMEDIATELY either back to our room or to the rented locker we had, King ends up hauling it around half the day.  :D

And to think, they still had PLENTY of them the last day....!

Man, I wish I hadn't seen your post, Mike - I just ordered 15 modules to fill a few gaps in my DCC collection. I'm not supposed to be buying anything for a while, but 50% off is hard to resist.

15 mods for $95... a bargain. Still a few more to get but I'll think about it for a day or two before deciding whether to spend another hundred or so.

Regards

Mike

Imo I think the Goodman mods will be collectable.  They are a good collectable, and achievable, set.  I have toyed with the idea of collecting these for while but after seeing the 50% off I have bought one of everything that isn't sold out from the 3E stuff  :twisted:  So now I am $411.53 plus $40 shipping lighter. 8O
Something like this always happens to me after reading this forum.

Why am I not getting a commission off this?  Joe Goodman, can you hear me???? :D

I will agree with Simon...I think the DCCs are a VERY collectible niche, and wouldn't be surprised to see certain of these gain in value over the years. As it's been pointed out, a complete set is achievable and has a definite ending point....the only stickler being the hardest to find item,  3.5 Haunted Lighthouse (which should go nuts in the years ahead).  I don't know the print runs of the individual (not special edition) modules, but it couldn't have been as high as a lot of the 3/3.5 stuff out there.  Just because they appear ubiquitous on shelves now doesn't say anything for 3-5 years from now.....you will be kicking yourself in a few years if you don't complete that set now!

$289 and change.
I will soon have most of the DCC's numbered below 53 including both versions of DCC 27 (Revenge of the Rat King).

Missing only a scant handful now, including 3.5 and 17.5.

Thanks to a VERY generous fellow Acaeum member I now have the formerly very illusive DCC 30 though. :!:

Oh and thanks for the thread Mike. 8)

What exactly is so elusive about DCC 30?  The original edition is still available on their website so I assume you are referring to the tournament edition.  I have seen it in several game/comic book stores around the area so it should be pretty easy to pick up for awhile longer as long as people dont mind paying the price for it.

My suggestion....dont open it if it is still in the shrinkwrap.  Other than the minis, there really isnt any additional value to the set.  Same adventure packaged with a bunch of tournament handouts.  Not to mention, it probably wont ever close all the way again either because after it is taken out of the shrink, the foam protecting the miniatures expands and the top part of the box will no longer completely close over the bottom part.  :(

OK.
My copy of DCC 30 is NOT the tournament Box Set.
My copy of DCC 30 is a module. Thick, but still just the module.
No minis, no box, no handouts.
So, not so illusive then.

Sorry.

BTW: Has anyone noticed that one of the DCC number indicators is incorrect on DCC 20?

The front cover shows DCC 20, but the spine lists DCC #19.

If this has been discussed here already, please forgive me.
