I have heard a lot about that bonus here in the forum. One thing I know already: it contains additional merchants who stay in CC and Adv. Mart selling damn-good and damn-expensive stuff (myself i need 10k still to buy Robe Of Vecna). But what are the other benefits of buying that cd? What are the other features brought into the game?

I don't have the bonus CDs, but I've been told that the merchants are the only extras that they bring into the game.

The bonus items are the only extras. You don't need the cd actually, you could just download the files off sorcerers.net.

So they sell a whole CD (600-700 mb) just for sake of 2 files (recently downloaded them, 3-4 kb) :-D So what would be the other content of the CD? Installers for the merchants? Editors? Beatiful pictureful manual??

Yes. Especially considering that BOTH merchants are downloadable at many many places; the most reliable (IMO) of which is this place; top patch on the page, and despite the warning the merchants ARE compatible with Throne of Bhaal [img]smile.gif[/img]

it also adds some dialogue to some of the NPC's and has some other goodies, but the merchancts are the best part of the cd.

TaSSaDaR do not fear money willl not be a problem. The game I am playing at the moment I have managed to hord in about 180 000 GP and still have a ton of stuff I could sell. I think at the end of the game what ever I have I will sell and see what kind of money I come up with.
