    Used gaming on the web

    Greetings all,

    I am trying to fill the holes in my superhero roleplaying collection, and would like advice on good used/OOP games shops online. I've been to a bunch, but any recomendations would be nice.

    I'm looking for
    Most Wanted Vol 1
    Opponents Unlimited
    both for V&V

    Thanks in advance.

    There are four online used game sites I check when I'm looking for something, but none of them have either of those books right now. FYI, although it's not helpful right now, those sites are The Dragon's Trove, Titan Games, Noble Knight Games, and Sentry Box.

    There's an auction on Ebay right now for a lot that includes Opponents Unlimited. (Click here)

    And this game store site has a copy of Most Wanted Volume 1. (Click here) For this one, do a search at their site on "Most Wanted"

    Thanks Derek.

    I frequent the four main ones you mentioned. The Trove filled in virtually the rest of my V&V needlist.

    One down.
    I have never used Ebay, so I am uncomfortable with that.

    *shrug* It's pretty easy. I've had over 100 transactions through Ebay, and have had a problem only once. The seller of that auction looks totally reliable... he's been in 90 transactions and never had a bad comment made about him.

    Of course, you may not want to bid on the whole lot to get one book.

    You're really cutting yourself off from a lot of options in finding OOP game stuff if you won't use Ebay. You can find stuff there that just isn't available anywhere else.

    Hi Gents,

    Derek named the same site I use. eBay is the best though IMHO. You really should give it a try...
    GAME ON!

    You might also try Fantasy Games Unlimited's website as well.
    The last time I checked out their site, they had a sizeable
    portion of their stock for their game lines available (including
    some I had never heard of, like Freedom Fighter).

    I got all the stuff still available from FGU. Those two weren't in it.

    I did get them though. Derek's advice was great. The one shop had it, and I ordered it... and braved the waters of Ebay and got the V&V collection the link above went to.

    Thanks for all the help.
