Two for just under $50 and one for $35 (which is darn good).
Noble Knight might be cheaper but didn't check. I have gotten quite a few AD&D 2nd edition books for cheaper than that from their site.
Noble Knight (whom I like, due to its support for podcasts I enjoy and thus recommend using) sells at the $55 range.
Oh my gosh! I usually buy 2nd edition books not of thje Ravenloft variety so I wasn't aware of the pricey price. ANd that doesn't include their shipping either.!!

Thanks, man ;)

If you're in the US and can find used bookstores, you can occasionally find an insane steal. Once found those 4 and the Complete Priest Spell Compendium (3 volumes I think?) at a store for about $2-4 apiece. Bought the Priest Spells immediately, as I already owned the others.

Well I am looking for MASTER OF RAVENLOFT book, I missed my chance on a 15 dollar one not so long ago. That be the most I would pay for it anyways. But this book got some insane prices.

Also looking for old rpga ravenloft adventures. I have not seen one posted on ebay for a long time now.

There was another that claimed to be new and shrinkwrapped for under $40. I snagged that before posting. ;)

I've gotten some good deals on Amazon. I snagged one of the Requiem adventures for cheap there too.
When you shop on eBay you have a better chance of seeing the item but there's the competitive factor that drives up the price. In contrast, there are a lot of smaller bookstores that double as Amazon vendors, and just sell stuff without really checking the price much. And you can snag without having to run out a clock while panicking someone else will notice.

Actually, I use nobleknight for 2nd edition books. They are pretty decent for having my 2nd edition needs but not too pricey.

Anyone know anything about this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-Wolf-Quar ... SwvUlWrX7P
?

Is there anything of substance in the article about the RL Gaz, or is it basically an ad/preview?

And who was looking for a DM screen? http://www.cafr.ebay.ca/itm/Ravenloft-D ... SwLN5Wh~IZ

This one's a bit better, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Spellfire-Colle ... SwzhVWr4EW (though international shipping may kill it for you.)

Thanks.

Been a while since I browsed Ravenloft items on ebay (since I have about everything and I have given hope for the RL patch and the pewter pins). Wow, those minis prices have soared!

Guess no one's interested. If they haven't sold by friday, I'll probably just take them back and get a refund. :|
