D&D (2024) So what's the new Player's Handbook going for on eBay?

[Corinnguard]

I'm pretty sure all Wotc digital stuff is still being run on the original computer Gary had in his basement when he started TSR...

I hope they had the sense to update it. What were computers running on back then? Not Windows, certainly.

I hope their car breaks down and their dogs bite em.

Why stop there? I hope their car breaks down, their dogs bite them, their bill payments are late...

And we are free to judge your judgment

To be honest, I'm judging everyone here, all the time.

I mean, I don't want them to like lose their house and home. I can't be that heartless.

True, he doesn't have to buy it. He could wait until it shows up on Creative Commons and then look at it for free.

I highly doubt the PHB is going to be in Creative Commons.

I know. But it's fun to imagine something happening to said individuals even if it doesn't happen in RL.

Not the whole thing, but some of it will be.

It could be that some of the people who went through all of that monetary trouble to get their hands on a 2024 PHB were hoping on getting one and using it in their RPG sessions. Being one of the first to get and own it would be worth it in the eyes of some fans. More so than selling it on eBay.

I'm sure some of the people buying the book on ebay are also intending to use it for their D&D sessions, since they are willing to pay a significant markup to get it a few weeks early.

Or... They're treating it as a collectable to resell at some later date.
