What reason did the seller give for cancelling the sale?


Whatever reason they gave is a moot point. They relisted because someone messaged them and told them hey it's worth THIS MUCH! Or maybe they just priced it wrong.

Regardless, only thing the Buyer can do is leave a Negative.

Another ultra-rare with a neat letter of provenance included:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


Short auction run-time too.

In regard to The Lost Caverns of Tsojconth, there's only been one prior recorded sale on The Acaeum this year.

There were more in prior years, but hardly a lot:

2023 (1)
2022 (3)
2021 (1)
2019 (4)
2018 (5)
2017 (3)

Quite a few of these 17 were sold by the_collectors_trove (4) and lumberjacques (3). The stockpile that lumberjacques had is now apparently gone.

There have been a total of 60 recorded sales of Tsojconth since 2002. Quite a few came from the inventory that lumberjacques had. It's unknown how many of these sales were repeat sales of the same item.

The Lost Caverns of Tsojconth has been the most commonly sold ultra-rare item.

A more reasonably priced Dungeons & Dragons Limited Edition Chess Set:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


This is the set that was released by WotC in 2006.

Interesting.  I may have one coming up sometime in the next year.

Best,

Isn't it pretty obvious? They listed it for $50 BIN then realized it was worth quite a bit more.

This is the uncommon limited edition RPGA version of the Greyhawk Gazetteer:


** expired/removed eBay auction **


It is often missed because it's similar to the standard Gazetteer:

Nice Doug, it is a rare version with probably less than a few thousand in existence.  Could it be due to it being a 3E item have something to do with its lack of popularity?

Likely due to it being a d20 product.

I suspect that it flies under the radar with a lot of collectors, since it's not easy to spot with the two additional gazetteers (11742 & 11743) that were produced in 2000.

Many d20 products are beginning to increase in value.  Some of the rarer 3e/d20 items are already rather pricey.  This will probably follow a similar path eventually.

This book reminds me of a recent discussion about EGG signature which was suspect... isn't it?

The acaeum link here now shows it "did not sell" even though the original end time was next Sun. I tried looking for it as a completed auction on the seller's page, and it doesn't show up. I wonder if Ebay changed stuff around now so that if an auction is ended early, it no longer appears even as a "completed" one with any note about an "error in the listing" or whatever?

While certainly not an absolute exclusion criteria, Darlene told me Gary used to sign his name on this page as if the Unicorn was "pooping out" his name.

10/15 years ago this was one of the most sought Gaz and it usually ended over 100 bucks... now no bids with less than 30 dollar of starting price... what has happened in the meanwhile?

hi
reprints the only ones that hold there value are the non reprints ones
some people still want the full colour maps instead of the paged maps.
i have seen that with the sales I do, if it is reprinted it can be hard to sell
the pdf ones still hold there value.

That's for players with infravision. Looks like two different colors to them.
