I believe that this one is still easily available from various people new in shrink for about $5 too.

I'll probably update the prices next weekend, but don't think they will change (or much) for that item.

1st print around $15, others around $6 near mint.

One thing about Verbosh, you have to watch out for staple rust. Huge quantities were damaged this way in storage that I saw from several bulk dealers in JG material during the past 15 years.

A lot of the excess Judges Guild inventory suffered from staple rust.

Verbosh is a fun read.

I got the priviledge of encountering it as a player.  There are lots of things to do, kooky mysteries, old-school bizarre events, gags, puns and all of the good stuff D&D used to be about.

It is hard to find a module that has more content in terms of hours of adventure, as well as various types of adventures:  Underwater, dungeon, tower, ruined city, in-town adventures, NPC's that are worth killing...it's all in there.

Just reading the shop descriptions and the names of the shop keepers can be a hoot.

Maybe. I'll need to go look.
But, you're best bet is Killjoy (he's not posted in a while) and his site AGSI (I think it's called). He brought a shed load of JG overstock into the UK back in 2005 and he's been selling it off and on ever since.


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

I would have thought the same thing but I already looked through all of the Judges Guild items there and didnt see Verbosh.  Not to say that Al doesnt have some copies of Verbosh and just doesnt have them listed.
