I've looked on E-bay, the 4th printing is going for just over $1200 USD. I am going to put it up for sale some time this weekend, but was told a few years ago since it is a 1st printing that I should ask about $20000 USD, does anybody have any opinions? I cannot find anything on a sale price for the original box set. Any help would be appreciated.Compared to the stuff being sold on e-bay, my box is not damaged at all but the box itself is slightly aged.All is included, dice and all 3 books and the reference sheet. Funny the printed price is $10!

Mars wrote in 1974 1st printing white D&D box set:I'm not sure if these dice were originally purchased from TSR directly or not. But at the time TSR was getting their dice from Creative Publications. The sheet with the dice is a sheet from Creative Publications so its possible they came directly from Creative Publications and avoided the TSR markup.
