The American economy is in a much worse place than it was then. So, yeah, if you want to make comparisons that ignore all the relevant economic factors involved, feel free. But don't be surprised when your comparisons don't really mean much in the face of reality.In terms of useful content, I didn't find the 1st edition DMG anywhere as useful as the PHB (especially because of Gygax's tendency to ramble and provide random tables for anything he could think of).And adjusted for inflation, the 1e DMG would be considered vastly overpriced today, especially with it's lack of full color, and low-quality paper and printing.If there are as many gnome lovers as you seem to think, maybe. But the fact that Wizards removed them from the PHB based on feedback really speaks about how truly popular they were. Fans are loud, but that doesn't make them numerous.</blockquote>
