I assume most people have spotted these prices:



His Master's Voice (I & II)




** expired/removed eBay auction **




HMV (III)




** expired/removed eBay auction **




And a few weeks earlier:



The Old damned House




** expired/removed eBay auction **




Tatterdemallion




** expired/removed eBay auction **




Very rare items.  But good prices too.

Amazing prices for non-official publications I think. I didn't think they will go for so much money. I expected something around $50, no more.

I think that it is partly because of the quality of the scenarios - a number of these were later 'officially' printed by Chaosium et al.  Further, many of the authors went on to publish Cthulhu scenarios/fiction after these scenarios.  I have a few CC scenarios and the ones I have are all very imaginative.

I agree that quality is excellent, but more than $200 for a non-professional publication is more than high. It is more than a Stark raving mad or Courting madness, which are one of the most sought after CoC books.

Is it Acaeum members or Yog-Sothoth members who won these modules?

I noticed that even Pendragon modules sold for a lot of money...

I think the last couple Courting Madness have been in the $400+ range.

I remember one listed for such a BIN but unsold. I guess the last copy sold for $250 IIRC. And the previous one for 150-200 not so long ago. But I am not definitely sure.

You could be right.

Either way, more than I would ever pay!   :D
