Default Value of vintage D&D Books



I have a bunch of old D&D books which I am looking to sell. I don’t
know the value of the books. All are used, but in good condition.
They are advanced dungeons and dragons.

I have about 15 adventures some dragonlance and some AD&D.

Here is a list of the AD&D manuals:

Monster Manual
Monster Manual II
Dungeon Masters Guide
Legends and Lore
Manual of the Planes
Players Handbook
Unearthed Arcana
Dungeoneer’s Survival Guide

AD&D 2nd Edition:

Rogue’s Gallery
Dungeon Masters Guide

I’m ready to put these up on ebay and would appreciate any input on
the value of the books.

Go check if any are already up for auction or recently closed and see
what they are going for.

And then go to your local used book store and see what they're going
for, there. The difference is one reason I generally don't patronize
ebay for D&D stuff.

Unless they're an early printing of the PHB, DMG, or MM, they have no
real value; though you can always get lucky with a web auction if there's
little competition at the time.

http://www.acaeum.com/ddindexes/rulebooks.html

The pages off that tell you how to check printing number. They also
list the early modules. Bloodstone Pass is up to $40 in good nick,
classic that it is. http://www.acaeum.com/ddindexes/modcode.html


There is the odd 2nd edition book that was dramatically underprinted,
but I don't know if the Rogue's Gallery is one. Most 2nd edition stuff is
of even less than nothing value, it simply may not sell.

As usual, check around the site you're selling on for recent sales.

You probably won't get much for them since they are easily available via
digital form. Alas, I will probably never break even with my colleciton...

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing.

I got close to $600 for my AD&D collection (about 30-40 books), but that was
before most of them were readily available on PDF. I think you would be
lucky to get $5 each nowadays.
