The madness just does not stop:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5190711708

CD-ROM Core Rules 2.0 for $72.

This one's more moderate: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5190711921 ($51),

The current sales row for this item (converted to Euro, starting with oldest entries): 27,50 € 50,44 € 41,00 € 33,13 € 37,34 € 49,48 € 30,50 € 41,03 € 20,32 € 22,76 € 28,11 € 31,44 € 30,50 € 22,55 € 34,75 € 58,50 € 79,73 € 40,66 € 38,80 € 38,80 € 49,52 € 39,45 € 56,52 €

I'm currently rating it at 40 € / $50. All CD-ROMs have strongly increased in value in 2004/2005. Including DRAGON Archive and FR Interactive Atlas.

That's just plain madness: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5207803923

Unreal $131.50 for the 2.0 CD-ROM. And I thought the going had gotten weird with $60+ results...

And the DRAGON Archive CD-ROMs keep getting more and more expensive. This is a good investment atm.

Example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5229692146 ($104).

Finally - a steal! The only item I know of, where the prices in Germany are below the U.S. average (except first printings).

Compare to this 2.0 Expansion CD-ROM: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5238367005 $35, which is average value for US. I paid $39 for both Core Rules 2.0 and Expansion, I expected a little more, but not much. I find it weird that the prices for those CDs are skyrocketing in US, and our local market doesn't care at all. And the prices for these items are not determined by collectors, but gamers.

Installed the 2.0 Core Rules today. The interface is designed in crappy VB style. Un-friggin-believable! I could have done it better, and I am not a designer. Will try out some more, maybe I can use it for the campaign?

DRAGON Mag CD-ROM Archive:

This is the sales row in Euro since 2003 (worldwide, I probably catched one out of three or four auctions):

52,51 € 35,92 € 31,16 € 16,53 € 27,83 € 30,20 € 38,78 € 33,47 € 41,85 € 38,62 € 54,53 € 48,94 € 42,53 € 49,10 € 68,29 € 67,97 € 105,28 € 58,41 € 39,00 € 77,84 € 62,73 € 114,30 € 91,34 € 29,95 € 60,09 € 58,28 € 72,26 € 79,65 € 95,19 € 104,95 € 52,10 € 72,90 € 70,48 € 53,34 € 71,65 € 85,69 € 86,17 € 69,52 € 74,36 € 64,31 € 117,34 € 83,00 €

OK, I have to visualize this:



See the black trend line? Madness!

I don't know about that. Dragon #1 has enjoyed some pretty decent prices in the last year. The last one I marked went for $276.02

Hmmm.. I believe I am a lucky one - got the Dragon Magazine Archive new, still in shrink for 15€ in an ebay shop last year. So I have completed all AD&D CD-ROM products and never purchased anything for more than 25€. Including the FR interactive atlas! So guys, beware of good offers near your next ebay account. he he he

That's a real steal! You'd have to pay 10 times the amount today, esp. for a s/w copy.
