Subscription Costs (with Shipping)


Paizo General Discussion


I just wanted to make sure I wasn't miscalculating the costs involved with a subscription.

With the discount offered by pre-ordering/subscribing it seems I can get a PF AP module for ~$14. However, it seems the cheapest shipping option is another ~$6 raising my total cost to $20/module... or the same cost I could buy it in a local retail shop. (or buy it from Amazon for $14 and get shipping for free)

Does this seem correct? Or am I missing something

You also get the PDF for free, and usually get the item before street date. The AP subscription also gives you the pathfinder advantage, which is 15% off most everything else at Paizo


Excellent point.... although I do like to support my FLGS.. but the free .pdf is nice..


Getting it early and reliably is a big plus too - especially if you're considering amazon as a potential alternative. There are regularly posts here about how slow amazon is with new releases (sometimes labeling books out of print or due in six months in the first week of it's release).

It's cheaper, but it's best to assume you'll get the book at least a month later than subscribers.

You get early access pretty much every time, and getting the pdf several days before others could buy it is pretty damn nice.
