Dear Scribes.

After much consideration, I have decided to put all my 3.0 and 3.5 Forgotten Realms and D&D Core books for sale.

This decision has not been taken lightly, and I will no doubt miss some of the content at some point (I can see myself banging my head against the wall in regret...)

Before I hit used book stores, Craig's list, ebay/kijiji, I thought I'd come here and offer it to you guys/gals first. Like a dog you've loved for a long time, but you can't keep anymore, I'd rather see these go to "loving users" whom I have shared with a love for the Realms along the years.

Money is not as important as the space I will free up and my intentions to make a clean cut with WotC (i.e. a matter of principle) so I will entertain any reasonable offers. I own all FR and D&D Core hardcovers.

Let me know if you desire any of these books.

Cheers!

You could do what I did. Sell the books and buy the pdfs.

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

If you'd made this offer a year or two ago I wouldn't even have had to check my collection I would have been able to ask if you had something I hadn't yet got. But now with all that has gone on I've drifted away from the setting.

Heck, a year or two ago I'd probably be persuading you to keep your books but now, I know how you feel.

I'll have to check my own collection, but if you've got Unapproachable East, Underdark, Champions of Ruin, City of the Spider Queen and the DMG2, I'd love those.

Though, shipping to the UK might be an issue. Either way, just what books do you have?

Also, don't forget customs, Uzzy. I know that about 70€ in books can be imported into Germany without paying tax.

PDK, could you tell us what books you have?

Ah yes. Customs can be problematic, though oddly enough they've never charged me for any of the books I had come into the country from Paizo. They did hit me with £13 charge the moment I ordered some dice from them though!

The tax free limit on non-book items to Germany is some 20€, books are, as I said before, 70€ or so...so if you had the dice sent together with the books it counts towards the 20+€ limit...strange but true

I'd like to avoid any shipping charges from my end. If some of you plan to be in Canada this year, the best would be to meet somewhere, and be patient in the meantime.

However, if I can ship them, say, from a FedEx or UPS store, using some kind of account number from the one requesting the book, it would be much simpler. If one of you wants to do it this way, send me a money order with a note listing your FedEx/UPS shipping account number. Of course, please coordinate everything via PM or email beforehand...

I'd like Dragons of Faerun. I'll pay whatever I need to, just let me know how.

Ok... this is starting to generate a lot of love from my local fellow gamers and friends from the Pathfinder Society, so I am already starting to sell a few of these...

I will generate a list by tomorrow night of what's left. Don't worry... it's not flying out the door just yet... just a few select juicy ones, is all...

Depends on what you mean by "near". I live in northern New Jersey. It's not that far from Toronto, relatively speaking, but it's not exactly a drive down the block either.

Anyway, I'll send a PM...

PDK, if not by the single fact that I live in another America, and I´m without golden pieces right now (gathering money to the show of Iron Maiden), I will be harvesting your books right now.

Dwarf, DM, husband, and proud of this! :P
