I managed to snag this puppy off eBay:

Looks pretty good to me, and (shipping aside), seems $14.51 wasn't a bad price. Thoughts, folks? Did this novice collector drop the ball?

You did just fine. A clean copy like that is generally higher. I would say around $20 to $25 is not unusual. So anything less is a solid deal for one in thatmshape. Great pick up.


And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

The Module looks to be NM and if so, that alone could sell for nearly that amount ($10-$12).... and often does.
For that matter the sealed bag of dice/crayon could probably sell for that much too.

I think you got that set at a great price too.

Fantastic! I thought it looked great, too. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

Agreed, great price.  Box has a little wear, but the contents look NM, could easily have gone for twice what you paid.
