[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 2458218, member: 20741"] [U][B]Annecdotal Evidence[/B][/U] At the Comic Book Warehouse in Brampton (a suburb of Toronto) they have a five dollar table with product changing [I]all the time[/I]. There are multiple copies of about 100 individual titles on the five dollar tables. I picked up 12 on my last visit. Nearly all are 3E. All are new. Mostly, a raft of 3E stuff that after 3.5 was released just didn't sell at cover price - or even 30% off. So now it's a $5 CDN table. Titles like Mystic Eye Games' [I]Foul Locales[/I] for $5 or a .pdf? No brainer. Print wins every time. You can drop $60CDN and walk out of there with new gaming stuff which is a FOOT THICK of new paper under your arm. There is a huge glut of 3E material that has been shipped by distributors at liquidation prices which has started to appear in FLGS bargain bins this year. It is no surprise to me that with so much cheap fantasy D20 in print that the .pdf action would be in material that has no equivalent in print in the first place. [/QUOTE]
