How many 3.5E books do (did) you own?

[the Jester]

Prolly about 80 or 90, including prolly almost a dozen 3pp books.

I'm still buying 3.x stuff. I pre-ordered the HC War of the Burning Sky book coming out (hopefully soon!) and just this week got on Ebay and purchased a copy of Book of Exalted Deeds (one of the few older books I've been meaning to pick up for forever).

I've always considered collecting game books to be sort of a sub-hobby of gaming itself. I'll never use most of the books, but it's fun to have them around, as long as I don't run out of storage space. Plus, it'll give me some decent stock for when I retire and open my own FLGS at which to fritter away my twilight years.

Not counting any of the 3rd party stuff, of which I actually own more, 86.

Plus a copy of every Dragon and Dungeon magazine produced during 3.x, which then more than doubles my count.

I think I'm in the 6-10 range.

The number probably goes up to around 30-40 if I counted 3E as well, and 50-60 if I counted all d20 stuff I own.

People having 100+ books counting 3.5 only is one of those rare occasions where I can't get my mind around the thought process required.

I mean, I still haven't played all the PHB classes I'd like to try.

PHB, Deities & Demigods, Complete Adventurer/Arcane/Divine/Champion/Mage/Scoundrel/Warrior, and a couple of sets of Dungeon Tiles.

 

[Pinotage]

Books? Very few. Less than 10. Pdf - hundreds, possibly even up to a thousand.

[Treebore]

100+ books, including 3rd party.

I own almost everything FFG, Necromancer, XRP, Pinnacle, Paradigm, Kenzer, Malhavoc, FFE, TLG, and WOTC printed. I own over half of what Goodman printed, and now own the rest in PDF due to their $2.00 sale. I own very little of what Mongoose printed. This includes 3.0, since in reality the differences between 3.0 and 3.5 are extremely minor. The differences sure weren't road blocks to keep me from using them together, at least.

 

[noffham]

132 just on my first two shelves of D&D books (wotc and 3pp). I have 4 more shelves and I don't want to even think of all the pdf's. Easily 3 times as many of those.

 

[catsclaw227]

I haven't counted my physical books, but I strongly suspect that they're 100+, especially given the way magazines are counted for this poll. If I add in PDFs, then that number skyrockets dramatically.

Me too. I think I might even have over 200 3.x books, though I am considering a fire sale.

If I count PDFs? Sheeeeesh. I have spent well over $4000 at rpgnow and dtrpg over the 3.x era.

But, alas, I am a fan of 4e, so unfortunately (for my wife), things don't look to change much.

 

[Fifth Element]

About 25 physical books. If you include PDFs, well over 100.
