I got the Core Books when they came out at about $20.00 (US) a pop. I got the FRCS when it came out. I thought it was such an outstanding product that I felt justified in spending the $30.00 (I think?). Lords of Darkness was good too. Soft cover and economical. I thought WoTC was going in a good direction. I was a little dissappointed with some of WoTC's other offerings such as MotP and Dieties and Demigods for the price. I ended up spoiled rotten.I know it's not a fair comparison between the Core books and the supporting books and I've read the arguments about the value of RPG books compared with other entertainment and mostly agree.Bottom line? It's not that I can't afford the books, I just don't want to spend that amount of money for them. So I do without and it's no big deal. If the prices can somehow be brought back down to $20.00 with the quality of the Core books or FRCS then I'll be back to buying again. It doesn't have to be hardback with pretty pictures. Just well written and engaging. The three little booklet format for OD&D suits me just fine and mine are in excellent condition still.</blockquote>
