Hi Paizo people. Historically, you’ve only updated errata when a new printing of a book has arrived, so we could use that as a trigger to order a new copy if we like updating our physical books as well.
That’s no longer your policy and sometimes the PDF updates while you still have unerrata-ed books for sale. At present, there’s no way for those of us who prefer books to PDFs to know what printing you have in stock (or more to the point - whether the printing in stock includes the current errata) without essentially spamming the product discussion threads for each book. This strategy doesn’t always result in an answer, or occasionally results in an incorrect answer.
Any chance we could have a page somewhere listing what printings are being shipped from Paizo? (Just for the product lines that get errata)?
I would like this as well, please and thank you.
It's a pretty common question on product threads and the information is a) not available, and b) erratically answered by staff.
I'm 100% behind a formatting change in the product description that lets people know which printing is currently shipping from the Paizo warehouse.
Just bumping this after discussion with Aaron.
To give an example - the Advanced Players Guide was errata-ed and I consequently bought a new copy only to discover it was still a first printing.
Id like to get an updated copy but there's no longer any way for me to know which version you're selling.
Also, occasionally staff refer to the policy of "we always sell the most up to date version on our store" which is kind of still true but no longer means its incorporated the latest errata.
