In a sense, you are excluding foreign bidders because the auction would only be listed on Ebay.com and not on Ebay.ca, Ebay.co.uk or any of the other versions.  So many foreign bidders would miss the auction.

Seller could have made an extra hundred, but some sellers don't need the money and think it isn't worth their time learning how to ship overseas. eBay make it really easy here in the UK. Is it really difficult over there? Do they have different software?


In my opinion, it is very easy to ship overseas.  I highly recommend a scale however, because the shipping jumps significantly and you want to make sure you are charging appropriately.  My guess is that a big reason sellers don't offer to ship overseas is because they just don't want to take the time to fill out the form(s).   :?

Is this two copies of Palace and Dwarven Glory in the same lot?

No, because we are hoping that everyone else will magically not see it.  :)

Those aren't the foldered copies of PotVQ.  Everyone, please cancel your bids, and I will save your collections from these non-foldered-printings.

Too bad someone didnt get the seller to realize that they could probably make more money by splitting the items up.  Infernax is high on my want list but it looks kinda odd.  The other copies of Infernax I have seen were much lighter in color.  Looks like someone applied a spray-on tan to it.  But on the plus side it looks like the "Dungeons & Dragons" at the bottom of the book isn't marked out.

I can't believe that the seller used the exact same auction title for every D&D related lot he has up.  :?

Seller has some nice CoC items:



Courting Madness by Pagan Publishing:


** expired/removed eBay auction **




Tales of Terror by Pagan Publishing:


** expired/removed eBay auction **




A few other hard to find CoC items plus Ptolus, Tower of Blood, Bottle City, and a TSR 25th Anniversary box set.  Unfortunately the seller only ships to U.S.  :?

Infernax SHOULD be much lighter. Interesting that the Dungeons and Dragons logo isn't colored in......

Its good to see that Kynan is the current high bidder on that auction and all.  I mean after all he is just so sick of seeing the same old faces in the collecting hobby and he is trying his best to promote the hobby to new people.   :lol:

Based on a comment of his I read over on Tome of Treasures and the fact that he has selling off quite a few rares lately, I assumed he was getting out of collecting.  Ah well....maybe with those rares he sold to NKG he was able to pay off some credit card debt and get right back into the thick of things.  :roll:
