Price + Shipping are too high.

Should be around $20 total.

Talisman with all expansions ( At least according to the seller).

The Dragons set has no box.

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

I saw that, too. And note the clever wording by the seller; he gets around that fact and technically doesn't lie about it. But it's dripping with slime.

That and the 98-percent feedback rating ... El Paso.

+++++

Late edit: Those details at the bottom? Ripped right off the BoardgameGeek page, word for word. Even the formatting is the same.

Caveat emptor on this one, Acaeum buddies ...

Lying by omition is still lying. The seller is deliberately being deceitful and lying about the condition and completeness of what he's selling. Given that he can't be bothered to tell the truth about what he's selling and what is missing, how can you tell, as he provides no photos, what else is truthful and what are lies?

If someone gets screwed by this guy, and they don't see it coming, maybe they deserve it. Some people have more money than sense.

A shame, too. I am looking for all of the expansions and the 2nd edition base game. Even so, at $399, that's $57 each. WAAAAY too much.

Yes, I agree that is a bit high for even all of that IMO...

I just sold a 2nd Edition Base Game Box Set.
It sold for $35 plus exact shipping costs.
Almost complete.
It was missing 3 tiny counters (the numbered ones).
But I thought I got a good price for it.
I think both parties were happy with it.
At least I got a possitive Feedback from the buyer.

From what I have seen the past 3 months that was a little higher than typical for a not quite complete base box set though.

No Sir, I disagree.

That price, assuming that everything that he's showing is legitimate, is way cheap.

At Gencon this year, the Timescape and Dragons expansions sold for $100.00 each, without the boxes. And I believe that the City expansion set sold for between $60 - $80. I forgot what the others sold for, but I believe much cheaper than these here (and again, no boxes).

There was a previous post earlier this year (or late last year) of someone paying $600.00 for a full talisman set (with boxes?).

RPGâ€™s, D&D in particular has had a major influence in my life. Itâ€™s bonded me together with life long friends...itâ€™s that bond in life not just as friends, but in our jokes, our mannerisms, and what we find funny. Invincible Overlord
