Which one would that be, if I may ask? Requiem?

Btw, here is a great 3e lot, including the DMG, Legacy of the Blood and the first three Gazetteers.

Sorry, an "s" was missing. it's got the difficult to find boxed sets. :)

Some of them now are much more rare (red box, Nighmare Lands, Requiem).

Congratulations! It's a great set, even if I never got around using the Dikkesha ;)

A good opportunity to grab all three Van Richten's Monster Compendium volumes at once.

Attention: If you find yourself dissatisfacted with the product, the seller will only refund the purchase, not the shipment. It says that in the shipment section, but please confirm.

I asked him about detailed conditions of the product, because the shipment would cost about 34$ to my country, and he told me that there were some writings on the margins. If those defects don't bother you, go ahead. It is nonetheless a good purchase.

I thought it was very honest and kind of him to warn me about it and even suggest to try other sellers. It kind of makes me feel bad about my warning. He has a lot more stuff on his store and some of the things are really gems of roleplay and caught my interest. I suggest you also check them out.

And so I open the box it came in and my eyes almost popped out of my head. The box was still in its original wrapping! HOLY SMOKES!

Not an auction nor a link, but a (relatively) nearby gaming store has Ravenloft Campaign Setting, Secrets of the Dread Realm, and the 2nd edition Monstrous Compendium I & II (the version in one bound volume), Monstrous Compendium III, The Shadow Rift, and one of the Van Richten's Monster Hunter's Compendium volumes (I forgot to check which). Prices seemed to run in the $10-15 range.

^ In case it wasn't clear, I think what Brandi is doing is letting the good people of the Fraternity know that she could get these for you if you need them. She's gotten me similar good deals before (with Dark Sun) and I can attest she's a great secret source.

Just PM her to set up the deal and send her a check for the cost - adding a few extra bucks on top for her troubles if you can! ;)

Yeah, that's what I get for posting at odd hours.

I'll calculate shipping to your area before purchase, in case you find that it's more than you can comfortably afford. I got a kitchen scale, it's very portable and I just take it to the stores and make notes. :arijani:

I haven't been to my nearer game store in a while, but when I was last there they had some interesting Dark Sun stuff.

The three VR Monster Hunter Compendiums, starting at $14.99. A good opportunity to get these three at once, imho.

A nice lot of Ad&d Ravenloft books, including Carnival and Vecna Reborn.
