Hello,
I'm new here. I'm considering selling some of my stuff I've collected over the last 29+ years and am looking to get some idea of the items worth (or maybe you could point me to somewhere I could find this info). I'd like to get a fair value, but don't want to look silly by overpricing or give the stuff away either. Searching around, I found this site and you all sound very knowledgeable.
Here's what I'm considering selling (I'll work on getting pictures):
Blackmoor, D&D Supplement II, Dave Arneson, TSR RULES, #2004, (c) 1975, 7th Printing 1978.
VG. Slight shelf wear, spine fine, no creases, tiny bit of rust starting on staples (no water damage), no markings, price sticker on inside front cover.
Swords & Spells, Gary Gygax, TSR Hobbies, #2007, (c) 1976, 6th printing, Nov 1979. VG+. Slight shelf wear, spine fine, no creases, no markings or price sticker, tiny bit of rust starting on staples (again, no water damage).
Gods, Demi-Gods & Heroes, D&D Supplement IV, by Kuntz & Ward, TSR RULES, #2006, (c)1976, 7th Printing, April 1979.
VG. Slight shelf wear, pencil mark on front cover and name on inside front page, tiny crease on lower right front cover, little rust around staples (which seems odd - I know they've never had water damage, oh well).
Chainmail, 3rd Edition. TSR Rules, Gygax & Perren. 1975, 7th printing April 1979. G-VG. Shelf wear, 1/2" crack in top of black plastic binding, creasing on inside front page (like something sat on it). Pencil-marked price on inside front page.

ARIA:

VG Very slight shelf wear, spine perfect. Slight crease in front cover. No markings, stamps or price stickers.
C&S
Chivarly & Sorcery, FGU, 1977, (not sure what edition it is yet - no indication of it not being first - I'll have to figure that out). Moderate shelf wear on cover cover, spine fine. Embossed stamp on inside front page (thanks, Mom and Dad - never thought that thing would lower the value!
. No other markings, tiny 1/4" stain on outside edges of pages (only shows on flats of pages maybe a millimeter or two).
C&S Sourcebook, FGU #7702, 1983, slight shelf wear, price sticker on front cover. No creases, markings, or rust.
C&S Sourcebook 2, FGU #7703, 1981, slight shelf wear, ding to top of spine (1/4") otherwise fine, no creases, markings, rust, etc.
And...
HAVEN - Secrets of the Labyrinth, Gamelords, Ltd. #1931, G, remains of price sticker on back. Some kind of stain around upper staple - shows about 1" on back cover but also mars most pages for the 1" area and extends along the inside cover about 4". Otherwise normal shelfwear, no creases, markings, etc. (Think I picked this up in a used bin somewhere).
So - any advice on what these items might reasonably sell for would be appreciated. And which ones would be best to take pictures of? I'd ask where to sell them, but I think I saw some other threads about that, so I'll look there.
Thanks!
Rob
