I suspect that the option had passed if you bought 2e books at a book store in the 3e era, that the store had already paid for and owned them. If prices were marked down, then I think that is especially likely.
Actually, most of the pieces were picked up on eBay and the used book marketplaces, so yeah, TSR got something for them originally, but I didn't buy them 'Mint in Box' as it were. The original point was that even though I loved several of the settings TSR was creating stuff for, I was unable to justify picking up everything produced as it came out in the Nineties. So although I have had time to fill in the gaps of my collection, that really doesn't do TSR any good at this point. Especially since the company hasn't existed for over a decade.
Heck I just put in an order for the three Jakandor books from a used book seller. Their sale probably isn't helping TSR's balance sheet now =P
