4th Printing of CRB from Amazon yet?


Paizo General Discussion


Or, at least, consistently?

What with all the Amazon talk, I remembered that I'd like to add another copy (and of the latest printing) to the shelf, and just curious how many of you folks have bought a copy from them lately, and if it was a 4th Printing.

I bought a copy recently, but I'm curious how you tell which version it is?

Do I just have to look up the errata and compare it to the text?


On the credits page facing the table of contents, at the very bottom, it will tell you the printing, printing date, and country of origin.

Amazon has definitely had *plenty* of 4th printings shipped to them over the past six or seven months, but that's still no guarantee that they *only* have 4th printings in all of their warehouses. I wouldn't be surprised if they still have a handful of 1st printings hanging around somewhere.

Understood. I'm just hoping for reports of consistent 4th Printing shipments...

Guess I'll just have to order and see. If it's not a 4th, I'm sure I can find a home for it with a friend.


I had the same problem: Wanted to get another Core Rulebook, asked amazon.de about the printing, they told me they couldn't give me that information. So I didn't order.

Got it on the RPC. Paid a bit more, but I could be sure it was 4th printing.


Yeah, I took the chance - got a 4th. That was damaged, looked like someone slammed the top of it with round bar stock, but the indent/impact on the covers (top of front and back) weren't aligned, so I dunno.

It ALMOST looked like possible damage from strapping (like pallet-stacking and strapping), but I wouldn't think the books are shipped like that.

Anyhow, called Amazon, they sent a replacement that's also a 4th, and it's perfect.
