[QUOTE="Retreater, post: 7808783, member: 42040"] I just dropped $180 on the new Savage Worlds Adventurer's Edition Boxed Set and core rules (including shipping).

That includes one hardcover book, GM screen, and a few decks of cards, tokens, dice, and other accoutrements that might add to the game, but certainly don't add "meaty" content - such as supplements, adventures, etc. I'll be doing the same with the new Savage Rifts set coming out later this year.
