"But what if you don't have it?" I hear you cry.  Let me assure you: if it's in print, we will gladly order it for you, at no extra cost.  Moreover, we do game orders at least once a week, so if it's available, you won't have to wait long, either.  (And, yes, this applies to paints and minis from Games Workshop, as well.)


D&D Third Edition note:  While we still have a few in stock, third edition books are now officially out of print.  We have, and will continue to buy,  3.5 books in the used section, all in good condition, some of which are also on eBay.  If you are looking for new material, but don't wish to switch to fourth edition, check out the new Pathfinder RPG from Paizo.
