Havent these been selling for less than retail ($80)? Or am I getting it mixed up with DCC #51? Regardless, might want to keep this seller saved. Says he has more convention rares coming up. Maybe a DCC #3.5 soon.

It is the DCC 51 sets that do not sell for original price.
The DCC 30 sets are VERY tough to find, seldom coming up for auction.

Yes, I think that was an excellent price too.
If I did not already have 2 in SW, I would have jumped on it myself.

Very happy I stumbled across one recently for a LOT less than that.

I think this is fun just for the cover art, if nothing else: http://cgi.ebay.com/370531476563

And those are the original dice, but there should be another d6.

Any ideas how this can be possible...? They were on sale from Chaosium just a couple weeks ago at $65.

I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

They get a wholesale discount.. Chaosim did have that 25% off Fathers Day sale as well.. which brings it down to this price ish.. yes very annoying.. why would you buy from the manfacturer when you can buy at a discount through a shop.. makes you annoyed wheln you put your hand in the posket at full price (like me)

Frustrating - I'm waiting for my $65 copy to arrive too. I guess all I can say is that no one asked if this was going to be a Chaosium exclusive or not.

Not sure if anyone here is enough of a Traveller collector to care about this:

** eBay auction listing blocked. Please enable cookies in your browser for this site and for eBay! **

Or any of the other manuscripts being offered by the seller. I guess these could be considered to be Traveller "pre-pubs". No COA's but I dont know how easy these would be to fake.

I pinged the seller re: the rights situation, and he's retaining IP rights to the mss. content for now. They sound pretty cool, but other than knowing that they're by the J. Andrew Keith (and that Tadashi had a really high opinion of his work), I don't know much about the Traveller scene (beyond what I picked up here, of course

).

His reply:

heracleides on eBay PM wrote:Dear grodog_of_greyhawk,

I bought the manuscripts and copyright from Andrew and published them as Cargonaut Press in the late 1990's. Was also negotiating for the purchase on an unpublished RPG system written by both Keith brothers set in Poul Anderson's Terran Empire of the Dominic Flandry novels. Sadly, Andrew passed away before he could send me the manuscript for examination and Bill Keith was understandably too upset to pursue the effort and not overly interested in having it published in any event. Andrew was a great guy and very talented; the handwritten "Scam" manuscript I am selling was written over a period of three days and has virtually no corrections or revisions. He just set down and wrote. Truly amazing. Anyway, at the time of his death, I put up a memorial web page for Andrew; while I no longer maintain it, you can still view it here if you're interested: http://www.freelancetraveller.com/jakeith/jakeith.html

TFM has a Tombs of Valla up with no reserve or ridiculous BIN. I guess a missing dungeon map will do that.
