I'll tell you, if it's $75 it had better include historical sections wherein the rules for both 1E and 2E are contained as well as the 3/3.5 stuff. $75? My leatherbound Shakespeare was only $20 and actually impresses people.

No.

I kind of like the idea of leatherbound, but gilt-edged paper?

And for $75? Maybe for $45.

 

[Impeesa]

Depends. If I didn't already have a 3.5 PHB, I might be willing to pay the extra for this - just for the coolness factor. Since I do already have a 3.5 PHB though, budget will likely say "no."

If it showed how the rules were changed through the editions i would pay a hundred buck easy. Of course this would be an admision of guilt by wotc to whoring out and diluting D&D to sell PHBs, so i doubt they would.

Nope.
Just....Nope. There's way too much more I could do with $75.

I really don't know... maybe, if it looks really good.

I would buy it if there is additional content (such as new illustrations), and the leatherbound cover is really of exceptionnal quality. I mean: real leather! But in any case, I am willing to buy it only because I don't have ther core PHB.

eek!

my favourite hobby kills both trees and cows too now! Oh, the winds of karma are cruel indeed!

Yours,
