Hi all. I have a thing for hard copys, especially when a product is rather nice and i'm actually running a game from it. So i've been actively hunting for a hard copy of Burnt Offerings, scouring the amazons and the ebays. While most of the prices have been exhorbitant, the odd occasion where I found a copy for a good price, shipping has been unavailable to my poor little corner of the world (Australia). Most volumes of Pathfinder retail for about $45 Australiam in gaming stores here (US 35-40), although i've found the rest of the AP on special, so I can get them from there. So its just Burnt Offerings i'm lacking. All in all its a frustrating situation. If anyone happens to see a copy online in some obscure webstore, or heck, even has a copy that theyre finished with, please let me know!:)

Its actually really hard to find a copy of Burnt Offerings at all, even here in the U-S of A. Shipping to australia too... Aw man. Your mark up is going to be incredible!
But if you want a hint... see if the US army has any extras...

call me a simpleton, but how exactly would I find out if the US army had any extras:P *is clueless*. Thanks very much for your reply though:)

Well, there were quite a few copies of Burnt Offerings bundled with player's guides that were sent out to our armed forces as gaming gifts. Many are immediately reshipped here to the US via E-Bay, but you might be able to find one closer to you as our boys are deployed all over the eastern hemisphere :P...
The reason I suggested it: you might be able to save on shipping. The rates to ship to Australia make it very hard sell single items like that, and I know for a fact that there should be copies of Burnt Offerings closer than the US. I am trying to find where I got my copy, but that was over six months ago.

Alas, I did go there, as that was where I got the other issues on special. They had all of them except Burnt Offerings *cries*.
Many thanks for your reply though:)

I found that one as well, but won't offer international shipping at all:(. That seems to be the problem, whenever I find a copy below $50 they won't ship it:P

Do you know anyone stateside who could grab it for you and ship it themselves? It sounds like a middle-man is the solution there, even if it means you pay shipping twice (once domestic, once international).

Good news! I've put an order down for a second hand copy, supposedly in like new condition from an amazon seller. Payed a little more than is sensible (I got my PFRPG core rulebook for less), but at lease i'll likely get it before i'm due to kick off the campaign in a few weeks time:) Fingers crossed that it's in good condition:)
Many thanks and hugs for all the suggestions you all made for me:)

Ah, too bad I didn't read this earlier. My local store has a used game shelf with a copy of it there, at least they did the last time I looked. It's in pretty good condition, corners are a little worn and bent, and they are asking full price for it, but I would have been willing to work something out to get you it. I surely wouldn't have charged a high price for it, just the price they are asking, plus the tax and actual shipping. Oh well, looks like you've got one now.
