Hi guys, I've come across a couple of sites recently (rpgnow and rpgdrivethru) who sell pdf copies of old rule books and modules etc.

For interest sakes, I would like to have a copy of the original D&D rules(admittedly its the 6th print) but as I don't collect them, whether its mint or original doesn't really matter, so it would be nice just to have a copy to read. Also there were a few DMGR rule books that might be nice to read through as well.

So, has anyone dealt with these sites before and are they ok to use and are the copies good enough? Is it good practice to buy from them as well, as I wouldn't want to be buying 'pirated' goods as such.

Cheers in advance for any advice.

p.s If anyone has old duplicate copies that are readable but not collectable, I could be interested too.  

Given the price of the PDF's and the price of worn originals, AND the hassle of not having the copy in hand, personally I would try and score some hard copies. If you don't care much about condition, I believe I have a somewhat rogered set somewhere. I would be happy to look if you like.
