Day 21 D&D 40th Anniversay Blog Hop: First time you sold some of your D&D books

The only D&D related item I have ever sold was my Dragon magazine collection. At the time I hadn't played any version of D&D in 10 years or more. My not-yet-then wife was still running the FLGS at the time. She suggested taking the magazines to the store and selling them there.  They were taking up a lot of space, and I hadn't touched them in forever. Honestly, I couldn't think of a good reason not to. It was a little sad to go by the store and watch them disappear day by day. Considering the fact that I eventually lost most of my game collection a few years later, it was just as well that I sold them.
