Oh man, I recently found my box of old gaming books. Player's Guide, Dungeon Master's Guide, Fiend Folio, Blackmoor and Greyhawk, tons of modules, Dragon Magazines... unfortunately I lost all my dice!

The good news is, dice are cheap. :)

The better news is, if you're willing to part with those, the old original versions frequently fetch a pretty penny.

Really? I have some of the AD&D manuals in good condition. If I remember correctly, I have the GM guide, a couple of monster manuals, a fiend folio, and probably another one or two. I imagine you are referring to earlier books, though.

Yeah, things like The White Box (with its three vellum-looking books), and so forth.

A buddy of mine still has one of those old 1e DMGs with the Monster Manual misprinted pages inside.
