Somehow it seems longer...  Maybe that's because it came out long before then but when they started to shut things down they dropped it pretty quickly including taking down their forum.

As much as I didn't like seeing SAGA go at least when it ended you knew it was done unlike the slow withering away that was the RCR before SAGA came to replace it.

I do wonder, what are the current sold (not "I'll sell it if I get this much of it") price average for the core rulebooks from the various systems and how they compare to the original MSRP.  I'm thinking 3 generations of WEG books (although the original of that got a reprint) and the OCR, REC and SECR.  When it comes to buying old SWRPG books it seems to me that SAGA book are almost always above MSRP while many of the others can be found at or below.

Has it really been 10 years? Seems like it was longer. Probably cause we lost a couple communities before losing WotC forums as well.

As for the prices, meh. It's just what these people think they can get. For some reason, Saga books always seem to be higher prices (as compared to any other edition of SWRPG).

That's why I say when you look for prices it's usually best to look at how much they've sold for (what buyers will pay) instead of the selling price list which may be high enough to almost never sell.
