He has begun to auction a lot of really neat items from his personal collection to help offset costs at his Cosmic Encounter Online site.Almost forgot the actual link: Dune Frank Herbert 1st | eBayI've got a bid in, but feel free to blow me out of the water. It's for a good cause.
Xaxaxe wrote:Honestly, I think that $99 BIN is pretty attractive. Dune often goes for $50 to $100 (depending on edition and condition, of course), and it is one of those sorts of games that is almost always sold in punched condition. I suppose that means that most people actually played the game; great for them, not so good for the average collector.This is definitely a nice copy from a reliable seller ... like I said, I'm tempted.

Xaxaxe wrote:Yeah, it was a no-sale. It's now on its third listing (that I know of; possibly, there have been more). The opening price has been dropped by $100, but the following cheesy note has been added: "I can't sell this for less than $800." (in all-caps, actually).
