[QUOTE="mamba, post: 9156295, member: 7034611"] which they had to pay too, so they still paid for the development of the three core books and adventures it doesn't have to be one, either you have numbers or you don't. yes, they bought DDB it is a product with no investment, short of creating new copies of it to sell. If you want to call this something else, I am ok with that. If D&D were in that spot I would not exactly consider it thriving however. Forgot about DL, yes. The slipcase is specifically what I was referring to. Same number of pages, or less, than their other books, so same amount of writing and art, hence the same investment. That it costs maybe $5 more to manufacture and sells for $20 more is not what I see as investing in D&D. No, I do not know that. In the business I am working it it is quite the opposite. The advantage is that you more easily can get rid of them if you do not need them any longer. [/QUOTE]
