Can I make a suggestion.. could you please add some description of the item and the final price of any ebay items as 5 years from now the links will be of now use whatever and this post will be meaningless...... just my 2 cents worth..


and check out the question..

Q: Hi, Can I ask why I am blocked. John Oct-28-07
A: Hi...do you recall our last transaction?...I received a very damaged item (The Cossacks Are Coming) in an unharmed priority box, and rather than taking it back or making it right as people generally do, you questioned my honesty...I am not pleased to have my integrity questioned, particularly over some piddly boardgame, and you have no cause to suspect me of lying...see feedback pages, yours and mine...whether you were covering an oversight or just being greedy is unimportant, but our business relationship ended then and there, and I have no desire to revisit the issue. sincerely, John Bowman/BHG

What goes around comes around...LOL

I may be missing something, but please check the thread:

http://www.tomeoftreasures.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=334

We place our auction data here. If there is something else you would like to see listed, please suggest it.

Amazing!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=270182989331&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=017

It would be even more amazing if a "0" feedback bidder wasn't in the picture.

Are the other two in the Research section of the same value?

Anyone know what happened after the Rahasia auction closed? I got an email from ebay saying it was canceled.

I got that too. I thought I received the end of auction email just before it though (but I deleted it). I thought it ended at $1500ish. Then after the end of the auction got cancelled.

I heard back from xdnax and apparently the high bidder on Rahasia bap454 wasn't really bid on it - their account was hijacked. I don't know when this got found out - I suppose after they received an email that they had won a $1500 auction.

In any case, Ebay then cancelled the auction so no second chance offer could be made; so, the seller is going to relist it on Monday. Should be interesting to see how it goes the second time around.

Cool. $1500 is a good price for that item in that condition. The one I picked not too long ago from crazyegor, I think, was immaculate. The two Daystars, the three tourney modules, and ST1 have held their value fairly well. ST1 has come down a little, but not crashing like the brown boxes. This auction would have been a steal not too long ago, especially with all of the extras:

The Hibbs did a nice job on this beauty.

The seller also put up several other older and newer pen and inks that have ended recently.

We always have an eye out for TSR artwork.

The Chinese Dragon was one we couldn't pass up. We would have bid higher on the other D&D pieces but it just wasn't in the budget right now.

Now the wait for the art to arrive blues

You guys might try to bid on some of it for the Tome.

I'm kicking myself for not bidding higher for the Boccob piece.... C'est la vie....

I managed to snag the T2 playtest materials, which was rather unexpected given how badly I was beaten on the other lots I sought. I'll post some more details/etc. after I receive them.

Thanks Allan. After my DHSD experience I simply don't feel comfortable bidding there anymore. It broke my heart when I found out later that what I thought was a unique item was copied. It really put a shadow on the whole thing. I promised myself not to feel that again.
