Nick - curious, you said a few bucks more... what would you say are the going rates for both used and new D24s?  I've always thought they were quite a bit more than a D20.

Thanks

I gave $94.07 for my first D24 and sold it for the same price to Owen Kraus. It wasn’t perfect, but it was a gray-base and great runner and I really regretted letting it go...

A good D24 can be found in the $200 range, but not many in the past year... There has been a beauty on ebay for $500, while I feel it’s overpriced, it’s still cheaper than a new one.

I tried for this D24el, but came up short. If you take the cost of the accessories off the winning bid, you’re down around the $200 mark:
