Well - you can try eBay with a reserve and make sure the existence of the auction is drawn to the attention of the serious collectors on the <a href="http://www.acaeum.com/forum/forum-1.html" target="_blank">Acaeum.</a>But true collectibles go up for sale pretty much at one place: at Gencon during the collectibles auction. The guys who have the bucks and know their stuff are there.  You will never find more of them in one room all at once other than that one night of the year. (Origins is good for boardgames and wargames, but the price for rare RPG stuff tends to sell much better  -- and for higher -- at Gencon. I'd argue, generally, the better of the two auctions is still Gencon, overall.)The Gencon auction is one my favorite things about Gencon and the collectibles auction segment is one of the highlights of Gencon for me.Last time I sold anything off of real value was 1993. That was prior to pre-ebay and prior to the bigger event -- the popularization and circulation of pirated .pdfs over the Net which significantly drove prices down across the board by... well....a HUGE amount. It's just not possible to compare auction prices without taking into account those two events, which have dramatically altered prices in the used RPG market. So my comments from that time are not going to be at all helpful to you Mark.</blockquote>
