    RF> Actually, in the RPG world (as in actual tabletop RPG

    RF> the expense of quantity and price for quite a while.   
      
   And where is that so-called quality being produced?  China?   
      
   I'm repeatedly disappointed that many books have "printed/    
   bound/manufactured" in China markers.

   There is still something quite satisfying holding a well-made

   Going back to the Grisham Limited-Edition at $325CDN, it seems     
   a crazy high price though for a contemporary, short-chapters     
   style book, and something that might only be read once, or     
   never at all, and primarily only "collected".  He's not even     
   that old to be considered collection-worthy, born in 1955.
