Hi, for a couple of months i´ve spend a lot of money buying paizo´s books in Amazon. Now i am planning a huge buy for mid november of the following products:
The One Ring: Adventures Over the Edge of the Wild
Black Crusade (Warhammer 40,000)
Black Crusade: The Game Master's Kit
Pathfinder Adventure Path: Carrion Crown (all including the map folio)
Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Dragon Empires Gazetteer -
Pathfinder Chronicles: Inner Sea Poster Map Folio
Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Undead Revisited
Pathfinder Chronicles: Heart of the Jungle
Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: The Pathfinder Bestiary.
I want to buy this books from you guys (care , love, etc...) so what i want to know is:
what i must do to get discounts?
Must become a subscriber, to get the discount?
I dont mind to pay a little more than i would pay from Amazon.
I must point that i live in Rio de Janeiro Brazil , so i am aware of the shipping and handling issues.
thanks.

the only discount I know of is if you subscribe to the Pathfinder Adventure Path line. Then you get those at 30% off if I recall and everything else by paize at 15% off and all non paizo stuff at 15%(except non paizo PDF's which is full price.)
Also paizo actually looses money on international shipping i believe, and if you spend over 100 in product your first $10 of the shipping is free

What is your advice?
I can give you the price that i will pay in Amazon for this products. But i dont think is right show this numbers in the messageboads.
Is there a private way to comunicate?

Amazon's price is pretty much always going to be lower than the Paizo store's. Paizo doesn't discount its own products in its own store to avoid angering merchants to whom their products are distributed, who feel they are being "undersold."
Long story short, if you want the cheapest price on Paizo products, order from Amazon. If you want new releases within a month of release, order from Paizo. Paizo is happy with you buying their products either way.

Even in the circumstances where we might lose money on shipping, we do still make money from the actual product sales, so no worries there.

I think the takeaway from this whole discussion is this: You should choose the means which works the best for you. Whether that is getting stuff from Amazon, or via subscription from us, if you are purchasing Paizo products from anywhere (so long as it's not second-hand), then you are going to be supporting us in some manner. The most important thing is that you get the products you enjoy and enjoy the products you get.
If you really want to go above and beyond in support for Pathfinder, then you should check out your local Pathfinder Society chapter. Get involved and GM. If there isn't a chapter near you, then start one! :) The Society is growing by leaps and bounds right now and now is a great time to jump in and make some Pathfinder happen in your area.
