Followed!

Allan.

Oh, so this is your account! I did not know that and was happy and awed to have found a twitter account of somebody who is an avid collector of international D&D and obviously has tons of stuff. I was, of course, the guy posting a picture of my german first prints a while ago as an answer to your Palace of the Silver Princess tweet   Needless to say, I´m following you (and found that you are the go-to guy Frank Mentzer recommended to me for international D&D just today, over at the Piazza forum).

I admit I'm a latecomer but I started following today. Wonderful collection!

Thanks a lot to all of you for your support!!

Just to clarify: A few of the items I am posting I am not the owner. Specifically all those with multiple copies of ultra-rare and ultra-expensive stuff. Those pictures were shared with me by a truly unique and powerful collector I know and admire.

The non-US D&D reach is so big, massive and needs so many skills in world languages that I cannot be close to managing it all by myself. So it is good I can join forces with those of you guys with interest in this field.

I insist that some of these items are so difficult to find and so scarce that the only reason they do not fetch prices as high as the rarest US items is because there is simply no market for them yet, and it is almost impossible to price.

in my current dealings I have only dealt with under 5 people in the world that actively and seriously collect non-US D&D stuff.

If you are a collector and have not started with foreign stuff, please DO IT!! You will see it is a truly challenging and rewarding hobby.

For me, the yet-to-find holy grial of my hobby is not a 1st edition woodgrain, but a chinese/hong kong Mentzer's red box basic set, and a korean official boxed set that includes basic, expert, companion and master rules in a single product. If you can get me one of those 2 you can sure empty my bank accunt

I scrolled through a good bit of your pictures on the twitter page. Really enjoyed them! Will try and locate my twitter account to follow!

Now that would be something I would be interested in as well. Does it even exist?

Not sure about d3rmond, but I've ever run across any.  I do occasionally find something I didn't know existed, though... all part of the fun!  For non-US versions beyond 1st edition you can reference the international section on my site: Dungeons & Dragons Archive

Ha! Agreed the size of the market could be super small! Would love to get hold of one.
