I sold a few of those big poster sized hex sheets in the $50-$60 range - think I still have a couple left.

I have a double handful of the Armory ones, so far unused, and assumed they weren't worth that much. I pick them up when I see them 'cause they're getting more scarce.

EDIT: Did a quick search for the Armory sheets, and came up with this:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


Damn, if they go for even close to $100, I'm gonna put a few of my 7 or 8 up on eBay...

Yes, there are TSR Produced poster sized Hex SHEETS, but that is not what I was asking about.

My item is the TSR Hex PAD.... 1977... Size is 8-12" x 11" Top Tearing PAD, not poster sheets...



This Acaeum has not yet seen a TSR produced Hex SHEET, or at least there has not been a scan/picture of them posted anyway.

Those are stated as being insanely rare.



As an aside, although I have seen some items of his that I would love to bid on (most being auctions, not BINed items) I would not take all the items that seller lists with BINs as being priced for a buyers market.



That said, I have no clue what the Armory Poster Sheets are worth.

Perhaps his BIN price is correct.

We talked about these sheets last summer - I got 5 of them with a bit lot purchase.  Here's the thread:

I posted some links to pics in the thread too.

I have a West End Games sheet too and a material one (maybe armory).  Generally I think only the TSR one is worth a bit because its TSR (and people collect TSR) and not the use of the sheet itself.  Armory hex pads and graph pads don't usually get $10 each.

It looks like what you have is described here:

and

I have one of these, too, buried in the stacks and boxes of old-school greatness.

Hex Sheets are at $74 +/-...

If you already know the price, why bother to ask far less REINFORCE THAT IN ALL CAPS YET AGAIN?

The Hex Sheets are rarer than the pads, so my brain didn't filter that out - just like there are two totally different prices on different pages for 3rd Chainmails. $149 is crazy money, IMHO.
Regardless, the 2nd should "in theory" be "worth more" (whatever money that is) /if/ it can be cut down to a 1st.

Back on the hex pads, I had a check on the auction spreadsheet and spotted several losses in the $25-40 range with a couple of wins including a 3rd (still counted as a "pad" within the Acaeum text description) at $6.65. I presume those all made it through to the valuation board?

Anything much over $40-50+ still sounds "too much" /personally/ (for the hex pads) for "interest", relative frequency of appearance and vs. the "value" of a wizard character sheet pad, say. JM02c, anyhow...

Cool. Paul paid $98.64, but I'd've expected that to drop off heavily so $50-60 is still reasonable given that you declared so many at once. Probably just about the majority of the number of complete copies known!
Storage for the hex /sheets/ is a pain, too.

Was watching. *nods*

That is actually a partially used second print, I think.  The seller notes the cardboard isn't there and also that there are 37 pages.  That's 2 more than the first print is believed to have.

Good luck on the count!
