As the title says, any word on a reprint of Street Grimoire (I assume and hope with errata folded in)? I'm not about to pay $200 on the secondary market (some people's kids...).

Also, the core book that is available on shelves now should all be the second printing with errata added, right? I have the first printing, but am thinking of 'upgrading' (having an 'incomplete' version and knowing there's a more accurate one out there bugs me...) and maybe picking up a second copy for the table/players. Is the binding issue fixed with the second printing?

There is a second printing in process, but I'm not sure as to specific dates. I'm not aware of any binding issues per se, but the second printing should include errata and corrections.

Files have been sent; reprint in process. New version will be a softcover with new art; they are hoping to have some copies in hand for Origins. The PDF will also be updated (confirming timing). Errata will also be released, but in layout backlog.

Well it seems there's a pulse again... question is is it a first sign of recovery, or just a last rally before death?

Eh, enough slack has been cut at this point, Medicineman.  If they want more, they have to earn it. 
Would you want to go into a place where the resident had a drum-fed shotgun and can see in the dark?

I've run out of slack to cut...

Long story short after 2 years in errata limbo I've reached a point where I'm seriously doubting how much CGL cares about Shadowrun.

now I want to believe this is the start of a new line of errata on SR5... but frankly considering this was supposed to be out last month and we haven't heard ANYTHING about it until now, leaves me with some serious doubts.

I want t be wrong about them... but...

Seems to be available:

Shadowrun 5th Edition Street Grimoire

Still not sure I like the idea of the reprint being softcover... :-\

Stupid, silly question, but does the price reflect a softcover? I have less issue with softcovers, as long as I am not paying hardcover pricing.
Where am I going? And why am I in a hand basket ???

Remember: You can't fix Stupid. But you can beat on it with a 2x4 until it smartens up! Or dies.

More importantly are there any changes?
If Tom Brady’s a Spike Baby, what does that make Brees and Rodgers?

Not paying 28 bucks plus tax and shipping to find out ;)

No updates visible at DriveThruRPG.  You'd hope that if they did include the existing errata (as a minimum) that they'd also release the updated softcopy.

That said, I welcome more softcover books!  For books that I'm not in all the time, I'd rather have the cheaper version (but a physical book over a pdf).  Will be keeping an eye in my FLGS to see if they get the softcover version in.

More like being cozy in front of the pyre of ignored complaints and negatives messages and refuses to do anything about them
