I'm moving this out of the on-line comics shopping thread:

You wouldn't happen to know of any places I could get superhero RPGs at a good discount, would you?
This place offers what I'd consider a "moderate" discount...

... but how's free sound?

Edit: Here's a few more sites to check out...

Good idea. I'll try to post my thoughts on these sites once I get a chance to check them out.

I checked out a couple of them but haven't placed an order yet. And I didn't take good enough notes when I was going through the sites. I really should have posted some comments here when I did that but I forgot to do so.

The free site had a ton of interesting information but I haven't had anywhere near the time to go through it.

I think it was SciFi Genre that seemed to have a lot of stuff I'm interested in a decent prices. I need to go through my RPGs and figure out what I do and don't have before placing an order. That was the main stumbling block in placing an order.

And I need to check my bank balance too. I like seeing a positive number there and this sort of shopping runs counter to that goal... :roll:


I'll try to find some time to go through these sites and actually post some comments this time around...

(And note that I said I'd try to do that. Work is getting busy again so no promises. But thanks for reminding me about this.)

http://www.rpgnow.com/ is a great source for downloadable games & supplements.

It even has the D20 supplement I edited. http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php? ... ers_id=472

I've finally gotten around to doing some RPG shopping. I decided to focus on the items I wanted from Hero Games for this order.

I did some looking around and ended up placing the order with SuperheroGameland.com.

While other sites had much better interfaces and search engines, SuperheroGameland has the items at about a 36.25% discount with free shipping for orders over $99. They had all but one of the items I was looking for. This is slightly cheaper than DCBS but only by a percent or so.
