Hi All,

Am an OLD shadowrun gm from back when all we had was a blue hardcover rulebook and nothing else. I'm looking to get back into the game with 4th edition and have gotten a few books coming in off e-bay. One book I seem to be running into a snag on is Augmentation. Is this book out of print or being redone? I've not been able to find it at any of the online retailers I frequent, and Amazon has them as high as $900. Can anyone let me know what is going on with this book?

Thanks,

William

I picked one up last week at Barnes and Noble for list price. I did see that they did recently do a second printing of Arsenal so maybe Augmentation is coming soon

If you're not opposed to PDF versions, then DriveThruRPG.com is the place to snag any of the books you're missing. They've currently got Augmentation up for $12.

I wasn't able to find one either, and I tried running through all my contacts even. In SR terms, the availability has gone from 4 to 14.

I will sell you mine for just $899, and give you free shipping

Or you can check out these guys on eBay, if that's your thing instead:  http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=shadowrun+arsenal&_sacat=See-All-Categories

Just FYI, the one with the new cover is the third printing.

Not Arsenal, Augmentation.

Thanks though,

William

Just wondering if anyone in the know had any hard facts about this book. If I find one should I buy it or is there just another edition or version coming out soon? Anyone, Bueller?

D'oh, sorry.  Misread the title.

The $899 offer still stands, though.  ;)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0979204771/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1317355592&sr=8-1&condition=new While Amazon says there's a 1 - 3 month wait, there appear to be 3 new copies for $37 or less (not including shipping of $4). I'm guessing they were listed after you posted your original message. If you're looking to get one, you might want to jump on one of these copies before someone else does.

Sorry to cost you $900 Critias! ;)

But why would he buy the Amazon version? Critias' offer had free shipping!
