One of the bidders on my Beastmaker Mountain module, believe he won the Nanorian Stones auction..so seems to have the money.

I dont even think I have ever seen Planes Of Conflict go for that much and it is more highly sought after than Dead Gods!  That is just one person wanting something so bad that they will do anything to get it.  I know how he feels....I pushed an 8 year old boy out of the aisle at Half Price Books to get mine.  :P



Just kidding obviously....I would never do that.  Nah, I would just tell the kid that Santa Claus was giving out free presents at the front door.  :wink:

I must say . . . I think it is entirely possible that the two people in the bidding war were under the impression that they were getting all five books in the picture - Dead Gods, Modron March and all the Monstrous Appendices.  If that is the case . . . they are going to be sorely disappointed.   :?

His MINT stuff is definalty pricey but not out of reach, I have seen the Fiends book go for over $50.00 many times.  I have got some great deals from Troll & Toad (mostly at Gencon).  He just wants to have a good selection of MINT stuff to browse.

He is really not that bad.

He's no "The Original Gamer", but his prices are pretty wacko on a lot of stuff.

$45 for a NIS Eternal Boundary? lol
$35 for Doors to the Unknown? GL with that!
$85 for Faces of Evil is just silly.

Just take most of his items and compare them to the competition's prices. He's almost always the most expensive seller, unless TOG happens to have a copy too ;)

An example in the second book I compared - his NIS Doors to the Unknown is $70. HikingViking's is $22. Mine is $22. There's no reasonable reason to have yours listed at triple the price.

Hopefully that goes off without a hitch, cause thats a damn good amount to get for an auction like that.

I had a few emails from this buyer prior to the end of the auction.  And he seems like a genuinely nice bloke.  Will still keep my fingers crossed though.

And now I'm kicking myself for not taking the opportunity to buy the other dozen or so SW copies that were being offered. :cry:
