"(20 years, 20% off . . . get it?!)"

You do realize that means that, in 80 years, you'll have to give them away for free, right? And then after that, you'll have to start paying people to take them! And....

No, wait. You said, 'I really only mean "if you read this Daily Illuminator post by August 29," 'cause that's when the sale ends.' So I guess we'd better start getting them now!

(And seriously, I started making a list.)

I just checked and the sale's still on at warehouse23.com . But it doesn't include everything GURPS, Pyramid, etc. I had wondered why something wasn't discounted, but was told that's because it was a new release.

Maybe there's a problem with drivethrurpg. You can contact them at https://help.drivethrurpg.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

But if that's not it and you still need help, you can check https://help.sjgames.com/support/home

Thanks for the help, I'll contact DTRPG. How many hours do I have before I need to fallback & buy from W23? It's not that I have anything against "the source", it's just that most of my stuff is at DTRPG so I just wanna keep it all together.

You're certainly welcome. And I understand about keeping things together.

As for the hours, I can only guess on DTRPG. I'm pretty sure SJGames/Warehouse23 are set on Central Standard Time even when it's Daylight Savings Time (which makes sense to me. I wish parts of the world didn't keep switching time around, but that's another issue). But I'm not positive about the time thing for the sale.

Somebody else know?

Good to know about W23, same timezone as myself so makes it easy.

You're preaching to the choir about time switching , that C@#$P is so 80's :).

I've submitted the query to DTRPG, I'll post their answer here so everyone will know. I'm also filling my W23 cart, just in case :P

Here's DTRPG's reply:

Quote:
Publishers aren't required to have the same sales with us as on their/other sites. The GURPS 20th anniversary sale was on our site but it looks like it ended today (probably this morning at 10am CT based on how our sales usually run).
That's that, too bad, so W23 here I come!
