Hi Guys,

I have not been following these for awhile. A few months back you could not get one of these with the counters unpunched for less than $60. I am wondering if I did really well with this auction or has this mod's prices cooled a little?

Thanks Martin

i'd say thats a good price really - still quite hard to get hold of with unpunched counters. though i wonder if the demand for them has slackened somewhat tho

Are we nearly there yet?

That is a great price.

The low end bid was a direct result of the crappy auction title. The title for individual modules has to contain item number "X10" and the fact that he did not include D&D, AD&D or TSR didn't help any, either.

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

This one appears to be advertised better. I also placed it under Interesting Items. Might give an indication of value......

Thanks for the info, guys,

I have been low balling some of the auctions not really believing I would have any chance. Then when I saw I had won, I nearly fell of the chair.

Been after this mod for quite some time.

Well I can guarantee that I am going to start searching all of Ebay for some of the items I am looking for from now on instead of searching the Games section only.

It would be nice to get Warriors of Mars or Boot Hill for $15. :wink:

I saw a Warriors of Mars on auction about 2 or 3 months ago. Do not remember what it went for.

If you really want to catch (almost) everything, you need to have a mix: positive searches, negative searches, wide searches, narrow searches, and manual browsing. I'm up to 15 or so, and these need frequent updating. Don't try to do it all in one search / tool. :wink:

Was there really a Warriors of Mars up a couple of months ago? I haven't seen one in about a year or so. What did it go for?
