I still sell this book. Just email me directly. Also, the PDF is for sale on drivethrurpg.

Is there a way to get these sale prices from a dealer/store/website based in the US?

As to the HeroQuest Gateway license: It is mainly geared for print-on-demand (POD) publishers which would realistically not have large stocks of books in inventory. Like all agreements, specific adjustments to terms can be negotiated. Thus far, all agreements have gone smoothly, and we have not even felt the need to consider terminating a license.

I'm not sure what you mean. :-)

Yes, there certainly is more than enough new material published in the last 11 years to justify a new edition. The problems for me revolve around 2 constraints: I do not have many of the things published related to Mongoose's new edition(s) of Runequest, and I also have a lack of time. I'm not saying "never", I'm just saying "not any time real soon".

Griffin Mountain and Griffin island are rather different products. Griffin Island is a world-generic Island using RQ3 rules. Griffin Mountain is set in the Lunar province of Balazar using RQ2 rules. To even things out, I took the new material Avalon Hill put into Griffin Island and tacked it on to the Gloranthan Classic - Griffin Mountain. If you take a look at the sample PDF on drivethru it includes the Table of Contents which lists all the cults. In short, you probably have 75% of the Cults written up in one or more of the books in your collection. You won't have the 5 White Wolf RQ3 cults, nor the ones from Different Worlds magazine. You also will have all the material scattered over a number of books versus all in one place in the compendium. Pavis & Big Rubble only got had maybe 20% included in River of Cradles for RQ3.

The $30 price is a sale price to clear out my remaining stock, which is almost gone, and will probably not last much longer. As for buying from you to ship overseas, why bother? I am happy to ship overseas and I am sure it would not be more expensive. As for the "ripoff" price comment, I'll pass. In another message you mention having spoken to me. I can't verify that without knowing who you really are. I certainly don't remember a "tedopon" email.
