Starfinder availabilty in the UK


Advice


Hi,

Can any UK players let me know of a good place to buy the core rulebook and the first adventure?
Is using the Paizo store a realistic option as (I assume) it is based in the USA as it is in $s.
I've searched all the online shops I know that might sell it and nowhere has it. Amazon has it on 2-4 week delivery.

The adventure paths seem just as hard to get. I don't want to finally get the rules and 1st adventure then be unable to get the 2nd.

Any thoughts from UK gamers?
Thanks.

I forked out on getting a physical copy of the Core book. Everything else is going to be buying the pdfs and sticking it on my kindle.


What part of the UK are you in? I bought my copy from Waylands Forge in Birmingham, don't know if they're still stocked up. They do take orders on adventure paths, if you want them. Failing that, I know theres a roleplay and tabletop gaming store in Coventry, and one in Rugby called Shadow Games?

Failing all else, have you checked ebay?


I was at Thought bubble in Leeds last weekend, and it was on sale at the con and at "Travelling Man" games and comics shop in Leeds, loads of copies in fact.


You know what, I literally just got into Waylands Forge this afternoon, they're entirely out of stock.


Thanks folks.

Although I figure Paizo will reprint and restock Starfinder Core rulebooks eventually. I'm new to purchasing Paizo stuff and I'm mainly worried about limited releases of the adventure paths. I'd hate to start GM'ing one and not be able to get the next part.

Are Paizo good at ensuring the adventure paths are available in Pathfinder or is it a case of "once it's gone, it's gone"?

Normally Pathfinder Adventure Paths are available in large enough quantities that they remain available for a few years.

The Starfinder AP was planned with an initial print run that was much lower than a Pathfinder AP, because Paizo didn't know the demand for it.
There will be a second printing of AP #1, but it will arrive in stores ETA november, after AP #2 ships in october.

Print copies are usually not reprinted (although they've made a rare exception, in the case of Starfinder AP1). They keep their PDFs available for years.

I don't know about the UK. In Australia, I'm afraid that many FLGSes don't really get it. Consequently, I subscribe from Paizo direct to be sure I never miss a copy - shipping costs per book are high though, unless you buy lots from them.


I got the last copy from Spirit Games in Burton. It hasn't fallen to pieces!! Group could do with another copy but haven't managed to get one yet!
