For the French books:

- Manuel complet des nains, 15$
- L'alliance voilÃ©e 7-8$
- Contact Mortel 10-15$
- l'Ã©preuve du voleur $12
- l'Ã©preuve du guerrier $5-6

The main problem will be to find someone interested. All are common items and there is not a lot of interest for them in France.

The Italian D&D modules you listed are quite easy to find, I sell them regularly, my best estiomate is 10 euros. The Italian Warhammer Fantasy roleplay manual (1st edition) is not that rare but much sought after, depending on the conditions could fetcvh between 30-50 euros here.

Same for the spanish ones. Readily available still. But if I were you I'd just keep them safe for a few years. They may gain some value.

Guys,

I'm always looking for "foreign" editions, especially of the B and X series. If they are that low in price, I'm definitely interested!

I lost a bunch of foreign books to badmike's brother at NTX this year, he's an aggressive bidder! :-)

I do not agree with the low prices written above. You can catch a desperate or not-in-the-know seller in Spain or France and get away with it, but even those "easier to find" items above regularly go for twice those amounts.

No, if you buy those (french) items at "twice those amounts", then you are a desperate* buyer.
:wink:

* or very hurried.

I didn't record any sales for those titles are twice these prices for years. They are very common and not sought after at all.
Seriously, even to sell them at those prices mentionned above will be hard because finding a person interested in will be difficult.

But with ebay, who knows. A bidding war and prices will be that high.

Not for those, perhaps: throwi asking after some of the others would be another matter. I've seen SW'd Italian Bs & Xs go for very healthy money indeed; and even without SW, with a bit of creasing, etc.

In France, some items go for big money too, like B8 (certainly the rarest module in French), DL1-2, DL3-4, DL4-6, X2 (golem version), CM2, Manuel des monstres for AD&D, etc.

But those last years, most collectors in France stopped collecting or have already all common items. So it is very hard to sell.

The prices I gave are just for the modules he asked about. I suppose it was not needed to specify that other mdules have different evaluations.

Yup, that could be for the french stuff. Spanish stuff from the Dalmau era regularly get 3 figures, even 4 figures sometimes.
