** expired/removed eBay auction **

I dont recall the price of the last woodgrain Tractics that was up on Ebay. But it looks like the reserve is at least $200. I don't remember them ever going for that much...with the exception of the black box Guidon printing.

I don't remember either, but I did find a black box set (really minty) on Powell's Books for $50.

Wow...that's one heck of a find! Where do you guys find the time to look for this stuff? I'm lucky if I have time to search Ebay nowadays. :shaking:

H-series lot:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Bloodstone Pass looks to be in excellent condition.

Another lot of some minty looking modules:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

Nothing spectacular but there is what looks to be a 1st print Tegel Manor booklet.

Someone's got a lot of duplicate items for sale...

eBay listings

I've got my bids in. He seems to be responsive (questions about maps and quality of the items) and while not much of it is rare, he seems to have quite a bit to sell.

No duplicates that I can see, just reuse of pictures. I never like using 1 picture for multiple auctions.

I went back and reread the descriptions, apparently my reading comprehension check was failed. :roll:

He does seem to have some nice pieces though (WoG boxed set seems to be intact from what I can see on the picture).

Wow $250

But how often do these come out for auction?

OR, if someone has a better answer, when did the last one go out for auction and what did price did it get?

Thanks for the tip aneoth!

I made sure I put the incomplete nature of the item in the lead statement and item description.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Yup... and thank you for placing the statements in and giving full disclosure.

I got a little bit excited when I first saw the listing.
Ive been looking to get one of them for a LONG time now.
Thankfully I never hit the BIN on anything until I have read the sellers statements and description carefully first and quite often I even contact the seller to confirm too.

I have seen that one a couple of times before. The puzzles often get good prices. It will probably sell eventually for that price.
