Christ almighty! That has to be some kind of record for Tombs of Valla. I would love to see the total amount of lofenloc's yearly Ebay expenditures. He probably spends more on Ebay in one year than I make at my job in the same amount of time.

Hey Al, you should try and see if TFM will buy yours for his high bid. That would be a pretty nice bit of change in your pocket considering you got it for what....twenty bucks?

Glad I'm not the only one who had the same thought!! My wife would have my nuts and head on a post if I spent that much. There's lots of stuff I would love to have, but not at that price!

Eulaliaaa!!!

Not particularly valuable, but a fun read: Tobin's Spirit Guide

Eventually, I'll get one of them. Been holding off until, and unless, I can find the Ghostbuster game to go with it.

Both red and yellow elder sign CoC books:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 0282035658

Make what you will of the price, but definitely interesting to see both at once and in BIN/Best Offer format instead of an auction.

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Tombs of Valla went for $399 to lofenloc. I was a bidder, but wasn't in the ballpark, obviously. Sigh.

To be fair, there are two seperate products there, Tombs of Valla and City of Valla, and both appear particularily rare. Firstly, it's only the second City of Valla map set I've ever seen sell on eBay (someone correct me if I'm wrong), and secondly, it's the first time I've seen Tombs of Valla in anything other than a red cover.

Lance, when you get it, maybe you could post a scan of the title/printing sheet. I'm curious as to the print sequence now.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Price not that bad. Could be worth a US reseller picking them and selling them on individually. Hmmm, if the gold sign still has the brown wrapping paper and string, then deffo worth it.

Judging by the pictures, doesn't look like it still has the wrapper.

He won't take an offer less than $200... so, if you're going to try and get them for less than the BIN, you probably won't, unless its like $299.

I wrote to the seller. The one is still in SW and he has the brown paper and string

Now, if I had the spare cash.... The temptation to BIN it is killing me.

Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day, and for once I'm inclined to believe...we are indeed drifting into the arena of the unwell.

Too late. Looks like red_bus finally crumbled.

Well that saved me trying to justify spending $300.00! Nice pick up red-bus. I can now let the jealousy overwhelm me

Oz seller jackin-fo has two runs of the Game Master/Games Master International magazine:

. . . http://cgi.ebay.com/Game-Master-GMI-Cla ... 19QQihZ006

19 issues of G.M. and 14 issues of GMI. The auction page itself is a work of art compared to most auctions.

Yes I did notice em when they first come out.. Its not too bad a deal for those in Australia, but not grea either.. getiing these from the UK would cost you less, but its the UK postage that is the killer...

Ends soon -- I gave it my best shot. Maybe someday.
