Couple of Aussie mods up on ebay in separate auctions, but the D2 is laminated. Happy hunting!

The £50 minimum I guess separates the wheat from the chaff :lol:

.

Sometimes worth putting a lower bid on something that is unlikely to make the reserve - I've had sellers contact me to sell an item after it has ended with the reserve not being met. (Oh and in the past (he stresses!) I was guilty of sometimes bidding to just under £50 on certain auctions just to be mean)

seems a little fishy. I have one with orginal shrink, and if i was selling it i would take much better pictures of it, and the cover looks awfully dirty, damaged for being protected.

That's my local comic book shop, who I've been asking about D&D stuff each week for the past 3 years: they "haven't gotten any out of the storage yet" Grrrrrr :roll:

Just curious, how would you be able to tell if the shrinkwrapping was after-the-fact on these boxes? (Other than dirt being inside). Was it similar to the way it was done on the modules and record sheets to compare against?

If the shrink wasn't covering the entire box (with a small hole in it, for example), I can certainly imagine it getting dusty and/or moldy due to exposure via the hole. Moreso the latter than the former, though.

Which is how i know my Shrink wrapped OCE was original, it has a small hole in the shrink where the box has yellowed slightly. Plus it was bought from a reliable source too.

closed at 180 which is pretty cheap for a OCE shrink, better pictures may have helped.

Boot Hill miniatures rules. Only a couple of hours left.

For a few days I thought this might go for cheap. Guess not. :roll:

That Boot Hill went for well under what I paid for my 1st print. But, mine is not water damaged, so I guess that makes it better.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

He states it is an OCE...

The picture is unclear for that part of the box is in the flash zone, so the Red Blurb indicating the 6th print cannot be seen.
