Thanks Sorontar. I dind’t realise the print run was so small, 45,000 copies of the main box set really isn’t very many.

Indeed… i was surprised by 45k as well. And i was also surprised that they took a loss on each. I knew TSR had been having financial difficulties at the time, but taking a loss on the boxed set was still surprising. Guess we should be thankful we got as much material as we did.
