[QUOTE="Erik Mona, post: 5025834, member: 2174"] Without getting too political, here's my take on why UK fans are having such a difficult time getting the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. Amazon.com and Amazon.ca purchase their books from our North American book distributor, Diamond Books. Diamond understands the demand for this product, and like most of our American hobby distributors they have put in significant orders on numerous occasions to ensure that their customers can easily get and restock this very popular book. Amazon.co.uk, on the other hand, apparently must order our books from a UK hobby distributor, and the sad fact is that UK hobby distributors have not been very bullish on Pathfinder, so the country is consequently pretty starved for copies of the Core Rulebook. I continue to work with our sales staff to come up with ways to encourage UK distributors to more robustly support Pathfinder, but the fact is it's their money, and they apparently feel they have better ways to spend it. Here's hoping that continued demand and strong sales encourage them to invest more heavily in the Core Rulebook. We'll definitely keep thinking of ways to encourage it on our end. --Erik Mona Publisher Paizo Publishing [/QUOTE]
