[QUOTE="Razuur, post: 685149, member: 1997"] [b]A PDF buyer.[/b] Well I have bought a few PDFs from RPGnow, and have been pretty much satisfied. THis has been an interesting conversation, so I thought I would throw my 2 cents on what has casued me to buy PDFs. Cover. Well, it can help, but it is not as important as the title. A good title that quickly goes over what is in it is useful, and may make me want to see more as I peruse through RPGnow. Comments. I really follow comments. I love it when a PDF has 5 or so comments. I read all of them before buying, and have only bought one product that didn't have comments (Elements of Magic). In fact I bought the maidenheim supplements somely due to reviews. I am able to sift reviewers who have the same tastes as I by their reviews. Description. Some times I wish there was more description. Advertising. I have bought three products because I heard of them on these boards. Cost. Spending more than 5.00 on a pdf is a rarity for me. I have to pay for paper and toner, and quite frankly, PDFs have less pages, and are often less indepth than printed prods. A PDF better have crazy reviews or have a high page count filled with stuff if it is gonna cross that 5.00 - 6.00 range. In fact some products, like lists of tabled names for 5.00 is just too much. if they dropped it a couple of bucks, I might pick up several products! Quality. If what I got was good quality, I'll keep my eye out for more products by that company. I am loyalty based. Hope this helps, Razuur [/QUOTE]
