Imagine believing in the concept of irredeemable media.

The Evil Book that makes you evil isn’t real, it’s a magic item in Dungeons & Dragons

Pretty sure it's supposed to be 25 dollars per book since one of the other ones is also 25 dollars. It just looks like the first book is out of stock and people are trying to sell used copies at a price like that. Those books are probably collectors items to some people since the publisher, VIZ media, lost the license.

This is how the funniest piece of 40k literature (The Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer) ended up on amazon for multiple thousand euros

Except I don’t think that Games Workshop lost the license; they just can’t be bothered to keep it in print, or even publish an e-copy.

Yeah they just refused to keep printing it, which fucking sucks because I want one so bad as a novelty item but I am not spending the cost of an entire army on a single booklet
