Interestingly enough, OAR 9: Caverns of Thracia has a listing on Amazon including cover art and a release date. I imagine none of this is official but it's noteworthy: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1961756471/?coliid=I39AG3820RTN5G&colid=1710ALMIT753V&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it

So, is the book just $10 more (And then $20 more for the digital-physical bundle) ? That's fair considering inflation. The article only talks about the digital-physical bundles which is why I ask.

Ok, that explains everything. Guess I'll be double dipping for the Soth cover. Thanks!!

Hello everyone! I've been searching for an answer everywhere to this question and can't seem to find it. The Deluxe Dragonlance set with Warriors of Krynn comes with the new Dragonlance book with an exclusive cover. However, I can't find anywhere that explains what this cover is outside of it...

Thanks for checking for me! At least I know these books are appreciating in value.

You think that's bad? The only alt cover book I don't own is Volo's Guide to Monsters, and it's, at minimum, 350 bucks on eBay. I've seen copies as high as 900 bucks on there. It's wild. It's crazy that Rise of Tiamat's regular edition is that expensive, though. I'm regetting gifting it to a...

I have 'em all except Volo's, but I use them at the table. They're visually appealing, and since I only own one copy of each book (If I buy the alt cover, I don't buy the regular one), it's only practical to use 'em at the table.

I'm not against the crux of your argument (You should buy it because you want it), but ignoring the value of it as a collector's item because you don't like the idea of "beanie-babification" is short-sighted, especially since non-collector's items much older than them (Like Star Wars figures or...

Considering they're collector's items, and generally appreciate in value, if anyone regrets their purchase, they'll be able to turn around and sell it for a profit. Seems like a win-win to me.

Unless they want the Alt Covers, as Target and Amazon don't sell those. There is the possibility of getting the best of both worlds though; my FLGS is Cool Stuff Inc., which sells D&D books, including the Alt covers, at Amazon-like prices. For example, Spelljammer is $48.99 on their website...

I'm assuming it'll be a Silver, Gold or Legendary edition rather than a Platinum. They usually only do one Platinum a year.

Generally, collector's items are more inflation-proof than recession-proof (So, right now is a good time to get them). They don't necessarily drop in value during a recession, but they're harder to sell if you need the cash. If you can weather the storm, though, they're worth the investment in...

Each Platinum is 1000 units. This will be the fifth, and three of them (Dragon Heist, Descent into Avernus and Rime of the Frostmaiden) have sold out. Wild Beyond the Witchlight is the fourth and, as of now, hasn't sold out yet. I'm still kicking myself for not getting Avernus and Frostmaiden...

Beadle & Grimm's Waterdeep: Dragon Heist Platinum Edition. Over $500. Cool stuff, but not nearly worth the price. I'm very unlikely to buy anything near that price again.
