@COJOH said in Buying information.:
@Midnight_Reaper I have the original edition of the AA Aniversary Edition (unplayed). Do you think it has still some collector value ?
I have no empirical data, but since you asked me directly, I’ll give you my opinion. Most of what drove up the resale price of the original edition was the fact that it was pay for it or go home. Now that you can get a copy of the reprint for less, this depresses the resale value for a copy of the original print.
That said, the original print had some things that the reprint does not. (See my post on BGG on that subject for a run-down of exactly what I mean by that.) And so, the original print retains some of its inflated value from before, for hard core A&A game collectors.
All-in-all, I would say that you should be able to get roughly somewhere around $150 to $250 for a good condition original print, perhaps more if you find the right buyer. While this is more than what you can get for flipping a copy of the reprint, this is also quite a step down from the $500+ the original was commanding before AH announced the reprint.
And that’s my opinion. I hope it was useful to you.
