Those printings of All the World's Monsters vol. 1 & 2 came hole-punched. I'm guessing the Harn stuff didn't though.

Don't know much about obscure miniatures, but this looks interesting. Seller has three of them:

Erm, don't YOU always search for as well... ?

Comic Relief (also known as Red Nose Day) is a big comedy charity event in the UK.

I normally put a coupla hundred quit in, but its quite fun if you can bid on something interesting as well. This is vaguely tempting:

Mind, for a big fundraiser last year I got carried away and put £1500 on a day out at Everton Football Club

Perhaps fortunately I didn't win it :cry:

I always search for them, but never on eBay.

OK, that explains things.

... and I like how the description skirts the issue of condition entirely.

I sent the seller a question about the condition and he has yet to reply. Getting a bad feeling about it.

Of the people who buy B&B, how many have actually ever played it? It's fairly shite. Incidently, there is also a B&B scenario in one of the early FGU magazines, but I think it was the only one ever printed. There was also an associated story in Wargamer 1 by the author.

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

I just sent my own inquiry as well....

What is the condition of this item?
Do you have any pics you can post?
You could gain more bids for more money for this item with a condition statement and pics. Despite looking for one of these for years, I wont even bid for it without those.

Ironically, at least one person that played Bunnies & Burrows before trying other RPG games such as AD&D seem to think that AD&D is fairly shite.

The Comics Price Guide has it listed as $360,000 for mint.
$11,520 for fine and $3600 for good.
It is hard to grade from one picture and a brief description.

I had one in just about the exact same condition years ago. It should run around $4K.
That issue is known for chipping along the right cover edge.

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

Did you mean either of these articles?

"Different Worlds Present the World of Druid's Valley: A Bunnies & Burrows Campaign" by B. Dennis Sustare, Different Worlds #3, June/July 1979.

"Jackrabbits' Lair" by Daniel J. Maxfield. Pegasus #6, February/March 1982. Pg 69-70. [this is a brief scenario]

If not, I'd appreciate more info (particularly the title) of the other articles, which I haven't heard of. There's little published for B&B...

There was also an article in Dragon by the same author as the Pegasus scenario:

"Hop, Hop, Hooray: Variant rules for B & B" by Daniel Maxfield. Dragon #45, January 1981. Pg 58-59.
