I have a copy of the yellow harback Spacehulk Campaigns book which still has its cards in the back and is in mint condition.

Having a clear out to try and fund some more pre christmas buys for other periods. With the rest of the gear I am chucking on ebay I have a fairly good idea on price. But I recently spotted one going for £45!!! Is it seriously worth that? I know Spacehulk is popular, and I would like a good price, but I am also not in the habbit of ripping any poor sods off. So want to know what is reasonable. Any one got any ideas?

I also spotted this one on amazon for $99..!! link

I dug out my copy of Space Hulk on Saturday to entertain a visitor while the wives watched the dancing and in the box, I found a copy of the same book which I'd totally forgotten I had and I'm wondering the same as you.

I sold the soft back mint on ebay for $60. USD This was before the new spacehulk release though.

You need to look at the facts.

1. It was put out by GW a very long time ago.

2. This means that if you want it you will need to get it through a 2nd hand seller.

3. Space Hulk was released again last year.

4. We are then back to the old Supply and Demand. The supply is low but if someone really wants it they will pay.

5. You have stated prices ranging from $60-$100. So your price is somewhere in between.

6. Since you are offering something that someone wants really bad, you will not be ripping them off.

I regularly watch e-bay for GW stuff, but always with a set price in mind, and I never bid beyond that. If you wait long enough you get what you want at the right price………….. eventually.

John,

They go for stupid money on ebay. If you want the money then fill your boots!!

Goose66630 Nov 2010 2:50 p.m. PST

It does appear they go for a fair chunk Pete,which is surprising.

Why not, Spacehulk is a good game.

Well proof of the pudding is in the eating.. So have listed my copy on ebay tpday. Will be interesting to see if it sells and what for.

Now if GW did a campaigns book for the latest version, I would certainly be tempted to invest.

"Why not, Spacehulk is a good game."

Yes it is and I still got my copy that I picked up back in 1988.

It got me into 40K and then WFB.

Then GW turn the games into crap and I have not played since 2002.

Still have all of my mini's though.

Mith, whats stopping you from playing the original Spacehulk?
I do, its still the best thing GW ever released, I still play my original game, original rules, plus the 2 add-on sets.

Was planning to get it out last weekend but due to work was unable to play.

But looking at getting another set along with Deathwing (I did not get Deathwing back in 1990 due to getting into 40K)

But yes it is a great game and I would rather play 40K using Space Hulk Tiles or Terrain since that will put a stop the the Vehicle spam, Flyer Spam and large overprice models spam.

So how much did he get for the book? ;-)
