You're so poor that you can't give them an extra five bucks? I mean, if you are I'm sorry, but...this is a dying industry, so if tossing them a few bucks will help keep it alive for just a little longer I don't begrudge them that.Nightfall said:Rom,
COOL! Thanks man. Saved me 5 bucks.

Just sayin'.

No flame war needed or required. $10 total for the booklet + shipping is not unreasonable. Is it my favorite cost? No. Do I want to keep Dungeon Magazine alive, as it's one of the few D&D resources I have avaiable that is WORTH every penny? Yes. Paizo / WotC can have my $5 for shipping.rom90125 said:Let's not start a flame war, but, $5 for the book (soon to be published as a free pdf) and another $5 for shipping. That's 10 bucks for a soon to be free product. If I had known they were going to release it as a free pdf, I would not have purchased it. As it is, when I saw the price of the book doubled (by adding in cost of shipping), I decided to add a flip mat from Steel Sqwire to the order. So, because of a $5 shipping fee, they got another $9 out of me (for the flip mat). I don't feel quilty for feeling slightly screwed over by purchasing a product that is scheduled to be released for free in another format as I've purchased alot from them in the last year (subscription to both dragon and dungeon, the Shackled City HC, an electronic copy of Dungeon issue #112). But rather than blame them, I take responsibility for not checking all channels regarding the ST Player's Guide PDF release BEFORE purchasing the book.
