PDF sales through Paizo?
Has Posthuman looked into selling PDFs through Paizo? If not, is it something you would consider in the future?

Hiya, We've considered it [we consider everything. ;)] -- but our research indicates that sci-fi stuff typically doesn't sell well on the Paizo store. We have an exclusive relationship with OneBookShelf [DriveThruRPG] and that pays us a higher percentage than if the relationship was non-exclusive -- so any new storefront immediately needs to not only make money for us, but make up for the lower percentage that OBS would be paying us. Is buying via OBS/DriveThruRPG an issue for you?

Re: PDF sales through Paizo?
I mostly was just curious. I tend to hang out and shop more at Paizo than just about anywhere else RPG-related. DriveThruRPG's download system acts wonky under my preferred browser (Opera) and their (DTRPG) support seems uninterested in even researching the issue. Also, several 3pp's have publicly commented that they move more through Paizo than DriveThruRPG, and that Paizo staff were helpful in making it happen. (However, to my knowledge they are all in the fantasy genre, not scifi. :() None of that is so pressing as to make shopping at DriveThruRPG a major issue with me. If they work best for you (and probably nearly all of your customers), then that's where I'll keep getting my EP "fix." Thanks!
