If i'm not wrong there is already the French and German translation....and of course the Italian ( of this i'm pretty sure since i'm reading it just as i'm writing this )
I'm sorry i gave you this terrible new *_*
Something I'd really like to see is a Braille edition.
Now that's tasteless! :P

Well, I thing that you want to "touch" a braille edition. But, eh, if this game is so good, then a braille edition isn't a bad idea. It should be accessible in all languages. Including Spanish!!!
Note: I can't believe that I can buy even the Player Handbook 2 of D&D 4E in spanish and I can't buy this awesome game.
Still crying...

Well, round up some more Spanish-speaking enthusiasts and make it known that you'd all pay money for a Spanish version, and maybe some publisher will do the translation.
All the different language versions aren't made by Paizo. They're made by local companies under license.
And I don't know whether this will be any consolation, but the German version was horrible. I haven't counted, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had more errors than pages. And I'm not talking about minor spelling mistakes or something, but real doozies: The feats table was messed up big time, some rules said the exact opposite of what the original rules said, the book had a spells chapter (With the word "spells" on the top of every page. Spells is not a German word!)
D&D has a long, long history of terribly German translations, and Pathfinder seems to follow that tradition, which is a real shame.
Add to that the fact that those translators usually don't translate everything, and you'll be better off with the original English versions.
Of course, your English might not be that good, or your fellow players'. That's usually the sore point.

You got a point there.
And I can't wait until anybody decides to edit here in Spain.
So... I have just ordered an english copy of the core rules and the bestiary.
My problem is that the shipping cost of the books from USA to SPAIN makes me buy it in England. The shipping cost is way lower. But I miss the pdf version that I could have gained if I bought it in the Paizo web page.
That's the reason that I should buy only the pdf version of the Adventure Paths. The Adventure Path subscription, do it works with only the pdf?

A pity you guys don't have your own amazon. Note that the Core Rulebook and Bestiary PDFs are only 10 dollars each, so you might still be ahead.
The subscriptions are always Book + PDF. However, unless you have a hardcover in the shipment, the shipping costs aren't that bad. I looked and my current shipment cost me a little less than $12 (to Germany, but I guess it should be much different for Spain), containing one AP, one Campaign Setting book (64 page softcover) and a softcover novel.
Because as an AP subscriber, you get 30% off the AP books and 15% off practically everything else from the Paizo store (the only big exception is non-Paizo PDFs), this helps mitigate things. This shipment, for example, got me a discount of $10.50, which means I only paid a couple bucks for the shipment.
Now, if I got the stuff off amazon.de, I'd have paid about 40€ (paying no shipping for a shipment to Germany). With today's exchange rate according to google, I will pay a bit more than 37€. So I'm ahead in the game here.
And all of this doesn't take into account that I get free pdfs with everything!

You only get the 'free' PDF if you are a subscriber. There is no 'PDF only' subscription.
As for KaeYoss, here in the UK what I spend on postage from the US, I make up in Pathfinder Advantage discount and exchange rate, plus I get the PDF copy for free. The months where there is a hard-backed book in the box are ... painful though :)

If you read my post more carefully, you'll find that this is exactly my message :P In fact, I found I'd have paid more buying the stuff here, even with all things considered and PDFs ignored.
