It does; thanks you very much.  Ummm... Do you happen to know why the DMG is $10 more than either of the other two?  Or is that (*hoping!*) just a typo?

Officially, no.

Unofficially, glancing over at my game shelf and my old copies of those books, the DMG is about twice the size of the other two books.  Checking page counts, the PHB has 128 pages, the MM has 112 pages and the DMG has 240 pages.  So, my guess is that is the primary reason for the price difference.

Your unofficial explanation makes as much sense as any official explanation would.  Thanks.

 Yeah, the 1st Ed. DMG was a solid beast... For most 1st Ed. players it doubled as a writing desk when not being consulted.
