Following the WotC OGL leaks / announcements in January, a lot of gamers decided to look around for new systems to play. A repercussion of this was that a lot of games — including Old-School Essentials — experienced an unprecedented surge in sales. This is wonderful, as a whole load of new players have got into OSE. There's an unfortunate side-effect, however: the stock of some books has run out much faster than anticipated!
But fear not, reprints are under way as we speak — the Advanced Fantasy Tomes, all of the OSE adventures, plus the referee's screen are rolling off the presses. (This must be about the 4th or 5th printing now of these products, by the way.)
We're expecting the reprints to be in stock at the Exalted Funeral warehouse around late July / August. Sign up for our newsletter to be notified when they're available.

>Is there any update on when the Advanced Players Tome will be back in stock? I received an email on Feb. 22nd stating it was and then when I clicked on it to purchase on the same day it was already out of stock. Is there a special wait list to be put on or is all of your stock just sold in the matter of minutes?
It’s expected to be available in the store on June 19th (see https://necroticgnome.com/blogs/news/ose-players-tome-reprints). The notification that a few people received in February was unfortunately a system error — there wasn’t actually any stock. The new printing should be enough for about a year of sales, so there shouldn’t be any big rush once it comes in.

Should be a couple of months. They’re being printed currently.
