Apart from that, there's always eBay.

I don't think there's any such thing as a "rare d20" book. I'd be stunned if there was.

At any rate...

Your best bet for real, honest-to-god out of print AD&D books is - believe it or not - Amazon. You can usually find 14th+ printings of AD&D core books for next to nothing ($5-$10 per book).

The next stop, if you can't find what you're looking for there, is www.addall.com - use the Used Book Search and you should be well on your way. Some of the stores tend to charge exhorbitant prices, though.

Jun 20, 2004 4:28:21 I've used both of the above methods myself. If I wanted the hardcopy I buy from amazon (forget ebay) and if It was something that I could print and bind myself I buy from rpgnow.com and I've never gotten that I wasn't happy with.

I have also used ebay for some rare items. I purchased the Star Frontiers module Dark Side of the Moon for $1. Can't beat that price!!! Thanks ebay!!!!!!
