CKG UK Purchase
CKG UK Purchase
Good Evening Folks,
After a few years of Pathfinder, and a few more of D&D 5e, I’m looking to switch back to C&C. I’ve still got my physical books (PHBs, M&T, etc), and those, plus the CKG, in PDF, but I’m looking to pick up a physical copy of the CKG (printing irrelevant).
I’ve done a fair bit of internet searching over the past few days, but can’t find anything in stock anywhere in the UK. Anyone have any inside knowledge of a local game store that might have one?
Cheers,
Z

Re: CKG UK Purchase
Thanks, seen them.
They are all coming from the US, so there will be customs and VAT to pay on top, probably bringing the total to over £100. If that is my only option, I'd rather buy direct from TLG.

Re: CKG UK Purchase
I couldn't find any physical CKG in any UK store listing. I hate VAT. Probably cheapest option would be a private non-commercial sale from a USA gamer. Post and see if anyone has a copy they want to sell cheap. Or direct from TLG I guess.

If nothing comes up here, you can always post something in the Classified section over at Dragonsfoot. Might get a bigger audience there.

Re: CKG UK Purchase
You’ve perhaps already seen Dungeonland, although they’re also out of stock at the moment. However, they do seem to carry the largest C&C selection in the UK these days so may well be ordering more soon. I’d suggest getting in touch if you’ve not already.
Re: CKG UK Purchase
Thanks. I’ve seen them, and dropped them a message.

Re: CKG UK Purchase
It’s strangely difficult to find a copy over here; I left a search running on eBay and eventually picked up a new one at a discount due to a dinged corner.
The only other potential stockist I can think of offhand is Fanboy 3 in Manchester. Nothing on the website, but last time I was there (admittedly a few months ago) I did notice a display of the latest Monsters & Treasure printing on the shelf.

Thanks mate. I know the owner a little from my PFS days, so I will see what he has.

Re: CKG UK Purchase
I'm in the UK and just getting into C&C. I'm also waiting to get a copy of The Castle Keepers Guide. Dungeonland is great and my favourite supplier. I hope that they get more stock soon.

Welcome to the group!

Welcome to the board. Hope you have as much enjoyment from C&C as I've had over the years !

Re: CKG UK Purchase
Indeed, welcome. I blame the Library Offences Act of 1898 (which forbids/makes illegal any form of gambling inside a library, amongst other things) although, strangely, it was repealed in 2005... just a nip after the release of C&C so, umm, maybe not so much?
What I've done to help those pond jumpers is to ship direct, rather than try to inform them to go to a store... even in the US, it is hard to find C&C stuff on shelf. I certainly cannot and there are at least 4 gaming stores that could sell it. They used to but then stopped.

Re: CKG UK Purchase
Cool. Where are you based, and are you interested in a face-to-face game as a DM or Player?

Hi Z
I'm based in Mid Wales. I've recently found a gaming group in Aberystwyth and am hoping to do some face-to-face gaming in the new year. I'm planning to DM B/X to start and hope to sidestep into some C&C.
Re: CKG UK Purchase
Thanks for the Welcome.
As I mentioned I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of The Castle Keepers Guide. Dungeonland have announced that their restock of C&C has just shipped from the US. Does anyone know if there is a 4th printing of the Castle Keepers Guide?

Re: CKG UK Purchase
Brilliant. Thank you.
Needless to say I will be buying a copy as soon as I can. I love the alternate covers.
