Number of Printings?

[Stefan Hill]

Hi,

Does anyone know the number of printings to date of the PHB, DMG, and MM. From the Errata it isn't clear regards the PHB and says the Errata is included in 3rd or later printings of the DMG & MM.

I know there is a PHB with Errata included, but is that the v1 or the v1.1 errata?

I have 1st printings of the three books but find I enjoy the game so much I would like to get copies with the errata all included. But I need to know what I'm asking for. Worried that if I order on-line I'll get 'old stock'.

My local RPG shop seems to just got in the 'errata included' PHB but 1st printing DMG & MM.

Cheers,
S.

On Twitter it was mentioned they have been through multiple print runs. Other than that I cannot say. It was unclear whether they had folded the errata into the news runs also.

To find out which printing, on the page with the copyright information there will be a string of numbers, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, although it might be in a different order. With extra printings, one of those numbers will be removed. So if you want to ensure you have a copy from the third or later printing, check that the string goes, 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. I will note there are a few publishers that don't do this, and there's no consistency at all where the information appears even if they do.
