I hope that you guys can help provide a valuation for the following items:

Five copies of The Desolation Part 1, part of the Slumbering Tsar saga (Pathfinder version), numbering 14, 15, 237, 239, and 240, out of 251 Gen Con special limited edition issues, all signed by Greg Vaughan. Note that unsigned non-limited edition copies are for sale on Noble Knight Games.

Similar products are listed on eBay for sale at modest prices:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


I am not saying these are worth at the prices for which they are listed, but this price likely reflects the most it would sell for.  Signatures don't always increase a product's value.  The Limited Edition feature would likely increase their value, especially if accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity to establish its provenance. And eBay is often the place to sell something for the greatest profit overall.  If you are willing to be patient, start higher than this and then lower the price over time until it sells.  8)


Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

The unsigned, unlimited version looks to be essentially worthless as a collectible, or at best has not increased in value at all.

Probably safe to say the value of the signed, limited version is similar to what you paid for them initially, at best.  The signed, limited (to 500), hardcover collecting the whole Slumbering Tsar saga is currently on Ebay for $80 OBO, and the seller points out that the original MSRP was $150.
