Please post here occasionally an item and guess what the ending price will be. Others can join in with their guesses on items others have posted up.

First item up for guesses....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5183701070&fromMakeTrack=true

A lot of items with 2nd edition guidon chainmail, OD&D boxset, nonTSR oldies.

I am guessing it will top out at $780.

Ye call meh filthy? A barbarian I am, but filthy? Washed me hair not a fortnight ago! Here, ya thick-glassed mole wizard, ye dingbat! I'll wager this steamy rat stew that the stuff is not reaching 780 gold pieces. It'll be less than 500, I say! Listen up, blind one! It'll be 490 gold, not a copper more! Ye hear me?

And look at the bid history! I notice Grodog, Sotto, Aneoth, and Frank Mentzer.

Hah! Christophe pushed it over $500. Now I wonder who's the "Evil One"?

One way to win ye wager is to personally guide the auction's ending.

I had decided to bid before you started the thread (or at least before I noticed it), but as there's no prize to win, I thought I could play anyway.
Maybe it was a mistake.

I propose the following for the next round (and I won't bid on this one...) :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5187145873

My guess is $510.

I have seen the top bidder (masteryaya) bidding high on a couple of high-profile auctions in the last weeks.

Here's what I see: Wee Warrior's Misty Isles and Dwarven Glory. Three D&D supplements. A couple of modules, including T1-4. The rest it near worthless, some Forgotten Realms supplements, four titles from the PHBR series and magazines. The Dwarven Glory could be worth $200. The supplements and modules another $100. Make it 25 bucks for the rest of the stuff. What remains is Misty Isles. What's it worth? A year ago, it was at $300. I guess, it could make $350-400 this time.

So, my bet is $650. Shall we wager? Ante is $5, winner takes all, losers paypal. Who's in? Cool

I'm in, at least to let you know I'm still alive...
There are a couple of other more or less interesting items, like the FR Atlas. But on the other hand, the overall condition seems to be VG at best.
So my guess will be $720, just at the middle of your bets.
