Can I use my 25% preorder discount and still get my 15% PF discount and get $10.00 off shipping?

The 15% PF discount does not stack with any other discounts. Basically, you get 15% off of MSRP, so if another discount offers you more off, it will default to that discount. So the 25% preorder discount is better than the 15% PF discount, so it will default to 25% off. Now, the $10 off if you buy $100 or more always kicks in since that is a shipping promotion and not a percentage off of MSRP thing. Make sense now? :)

Or, to put it in Pathfinder terms. "Different discounts of the same type don't stack."

The x% discount is a purchasing discount, the $10 off shipping is a shipping bonus.

Just think in OGL terms, works better 'round here ;-)


ah but the confusion comes from the fact that they seem to be different discount types... a "pre-order" discount... and a "Pathfinder" discount... and everybody knows that different named bonuses are supposed to stack :P

Got that for ordering the 4.0 box set from the good folks at Paizo as opposed to Amazon. It was a one time promo! Being your average rapacious consumer, I am trying to get 40% off as opposed to 25%. Bwahahaha.

But the 25% is fine.

...unless they say they don't—and the description of the Pathfinder Advantage has always said "The Pathfinder Advantage does not stack with other subscription or sale discounts." :-)
