Wonder if they meant to put $24.00 and missed a decimal?

The auction started at $400.00.

Wow... Just... wow.

Is there something I am missing on these two? He also has (I believe) a sealed Expert box set for a BIN of about $205.00 and I think I saw an Immortals go up for the same...no one buying those for $200 but folks are over $1200 on these? Are the special prints or something? This seller has had a lot of SW materials lately, but not going at these prices!

Holy crap! Is this money laundering? Because this really doesn't make any sense.

A seller on one of Buy/Sell RPG Facebook Groups referred to these listings last night as possibly the future of shrink D&D items. He sells a lot of SW Modules, so I guess you can't fault a guy for trying LOL

There is definitely something in the dihydrogen monoxide those bidders are ingesting.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

Given the relative scarcity and popularity of Planescape items recently, this price doesn't surprise me a bit. Packripper is actually a member of The Acaeum and I know this person to be a VERY reputable seller who would not overprice something based on an incorrect evaluation of value.

Here is a copy that sold for around half that price. Packripper's has a best offer option though.

It's not a Planescape Sketchbook...

It's overpriced... :wink:

I dont follow planescape price since 2010 more or less (its when i completed my collection... Sketchbook excluded of course) but in the first decade of 2000 this book was sold between 60 and 90 bucks... Inflation cant be the only reason for such an increase. Maybe a question to Azurah it d be worth...

More importantly, look at the location it is being sold from.

That has "fake" and "fraud" written all over it.
