Strange AD&D module found in closet

[Oldtimer]

While cleaning out my closets yesterday I came across a strange AD&D module I didn't recognise. It's called ST1 Up the Garden Path and seems to be rather rare from what I've found. It's probably a leftover from my gaming store of the eighties.

I'm no collector myself, but where should I look to sell it? Is eBay the right place for rare RPG stuff or are there better places?

I hope the collective wisdom of ENWorld can guide me.

It's very rare, only released for a single event, and can easily fetch four figures on eBay if you sell it right.

The acaeum will have more details (don't have link handy, as I'm at work, but you can search for it. It's a site about collectable D&D and AD&D).

Nice find Oldtimer! Depending on the condition, you can expect to get a good price for it on eBay. You could also try to sell it privately, in which case I'd recommend posting a note on the classifieds of the Acaeum forums.

Thanks, Guys!

I'm looking at the Acaeum listings right now and almost choking on my coffee. Four figures indeed! And I didn't even have to slay a dragon to get it.

Never heard of it. Could you scan the cover for those of who are curious to see some DnD history. Typing up he back cover summary would be icing on the cake as well.

Wow! What else do you have in that closet?

Let's just say that the module has bits of Hoffa on it.

I'm afraid to venture further inside it before I gain another level.

Nice find, [MENTION=10503]Oldtimer[/MENTION] Just FYI, the value rates listed @ ST1 are very out of date; you should instead use the values @ Rares Index (which are somewhat more current, but still rather old), and search old eBay listings for completed sales. My guess is that, depending on condition, you should still get anywhere from $1250 to $3000 for it. Condition/grading notes @ Grading

Some more info appears @ Tome of Treasures :: View topic - ST1 Up the Garden Path (1986) and Tome of Treasures - D&D

You don't happen to have a "Treasure of the Dragon Queen" lying around in your closet, do you?
