Finally, my cheap butt has a leather set of C&C...

because I finally found them both super cheap. It was even my favorite printing of the PH, the third. Yeah, I know some of you didn't like the glossy paper, but I really like it. Got them both for a little over $25. Total. Got them at the convention I have been at this weekend. Got some other awesome deals, such as h1 to H4 of the Bloodstone Mines series for $10, total, with two of the maps nicely laminated. I also got a nearly complete WarhammerQuest, All its missing is 3 of the hero mini's and the original dice. I got it for $50.00. If you want to see just how good of a deal I got, look the Bloodstone Mines and Warhammer up on eBay. I also picked up a copy of Talisman 2E, complete, for $2.00. I also got both Wayfarers books for 75% off retail. So combine that with a lot of good gaming, including the game of C&C I ran being so well received that three of the 6 players gave me a round of applause, a very good Convention weekend. One I hope to repeat at Con on the Cob in Ohio in a couple of weeks.

Wow, those ARE some smokin hot deals. I picked up my collectors PHB and M&T a couple years ago for a pretty good deal too and I love it, although I don't use it much, in order to keep it nice. I like the layout. While some of the images are smaller, it makes for a thinner book which I like in the leather. I also thought the glossy paper brought our the best in many of the more heavily grayscaled images, especially compared to the flipbook which struggled a bit in that area. They smell good too. :)

Yeah, after rereading my receipts I actually got the PH for $16.25, the M&T was free. The Wayfarers PH and GM books were on the same bill, hence my confusion.

Great score on the WHQ. I picked up one a couple yrs ago on ebay for like 75$ with one missing door frame.
