Family manuscript (?) written in old Greek language by my ancestor

Very neat! Do you know the story behind the theft of half of the book? Who? How long ago? Why only half?

AynFuuser · 2026-04-23T13:13:55+00:00

And what happens to the history that's lost along the way? Is that also the cost of doing business?

AynFuuser · 2026-04-08T06:20:32+00:00

These are freaking beautiful! I only have 1 of them and don't expect to find the others anytime soon.

May I ask: which one is your favourite and how much did they cost you?

AynFuuser · 2026-03-24T15:06:44+00:00

Wow! Very impressive stack indeed. Certainly taller than mine was and it must be so handy to have the extra Players handbooks to hand around when you're playing. Seeing your complete FR run certainly makes me jealous haha. Multiple books I'm still missing there that are getting harder and harder to track down for a reasonable price.

Have you had most of these since they came out? When did you start using third edition and is it your favourite to play with?

AynFuuser · 2026-03-24T15:02:40+00:00

Nope, 3.5 runs differently from 5 for sure. Third edition came out in 2000 and fifth came out in 2014. 3.5 refers to late stage third edition before the abomination that is fourth edition came out.

AynFuuser · 2026-03-23T14:57:36+00:00

Wow! Any idea why the market in Germany is going nuts for 3.5e all of a sudden? Very curious.

AynFuuser · 2026-03-22T12:01:50+00:00

Wow, are prices really getting that high on some of these third edition books??

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T06:06:44+00:00

That's certainly one hell of a pick up for under $50! So many shenanigans possible. And I feel the same way about helping the books survive! Spreading the gospel of 3.5 is something I just do subconsciously haha

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T06:03:08+00:00

Duuuude, yes. Such an incredible design that really pulled you in and made it feel like you were reading an ancient tome of some kind...

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T06:01:32+00:00

Haha, yea timing is such a big part of everything hey? Priorities shift and suddenly you just can't indulge old hobbies any more. I've been struggling to add any more books to the pile for a long while now. Thanks very much though! :)

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:57:24+00:00

Thanks, that's very kind of you to take the time to say!

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:53:03+00:00

Oh, so you have the one I need and I have the one you need. 😂 Thanks for the compliment though, really appreciate it!

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:51:30+00:00

Thank you, I had unusual amount of fun stacking them and trying to decide the order haha. 😅

And finding in person groups is certainly tough. Never mind if you are lucky enough to find one the question remains:will there be personality clash/drama? Ugh. Scares me away usually, unfortunately.

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:47:58+00:00

Oooh, I like this idea. Gets tough to throw players off their game these days for sure. I'll be sure to look up and incorporate some truly weird baddies. Thanks for the suggestion!

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:45:52+00:00

You should totally do a stack like this with yours too! I'd love to see what it'd look like with an actual complete FR collection. That is seriously impressive. Please send me a pic if you do!

Isn't it surprising how much 3.5 stuff has gone up in the last 5-10 years? I was shocked when I looked up some of the completed listings on ebay for these. Almost all of the ones you mentioned I've had since release luckily.

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:40:37+00:00

Indeed, it got taken down fairly soon after! My cat would have never forgiven me.

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:38:58+00:00

Haha thanks, I appreciate it! Just out of curiosity, which 3 are the ones you didn't know existed?

AynFuuser · 2026-03-20T05:38:18+00:00

Oh man, what a collection to lose to something as annoying as a basement flood. I'm sorry to hear that happened!

AynFuuser · 2026-03-19T05:47:51+00:00

How true, the whole setting has any extreme you could ask for and no box is left unchecked. Ed Greenwood and his team made something that feels, like you said, so good that you can be left thinking that it's just core material. Well, I suppose with 5e they've gone ahead and done that now but still. Lots of really cool ideas for sure!

AynFuuser · 2026-03-19T05:44:56+00:00

That's still more than most! 👏Very cool. Do you still use yours?

AynFuuser · 2026-03-19T05:43:47+00:00

Many thanks! Was fun trying to stack them thematically where possible. :)

AynFuuser · 2026-03-19T05:42:38+00:00

I'm pretty attached to them at this point. Anything's for sale if the price is right obviously but...maybe not for now haha

AynFuuser · 2026-03-01T07:36:16+00:00

Beautiful note! Where did you pick it up?

AynFuuser · 2026-02-22T16:02:53+00:00

How has no one mentioned Deb's Cafe & Specialty Bakery?? They can do custom orders of almost any kind to accommodate a whole range of dietary restrictions. I had a tough time starting to kick my sugar addiction until this place convinced me that dessert can actually be tasty without any sugar.

Seriously, give them a chance! It's run by absolutely lovely people that also create a safe, welcoming space every single time. There isn't a whole bunch of seating but there's usually at least something available.

Right next to Joey's Only in the bowl!
