Yeah. I somehow doubt that the story will ever be told, but I'd love to hear it.
Maybe TimeWillTell???

I don't know if they still have it. I pre-ordered mine way back in July or something.

I don't know, he even quit posting in the "count to a thousand with pictures" thread around 600-700. I think he accounted for about 300 of the posts in that thread.

Yeah, if you want the discount from DCBS, you have to preorder.

I may feel differently should the book be released soon but don’t think I’ll ever order from DCBS again. I’m tired of them just sitting on my money.

As long as your shop's Diamond order packer puts it in the correct box (trust me, it's no guarentee :lol: ), it will be in stores next week (11/19/08)!
Good news! I still will not believe this until it is in my hands. :roll:

Yeah, that can be a bit of a bummer sometimes, especially if the book is delayed as long as the A&A book has been.

I think they would have to refund your money after a certain amount of time or if you requested one.

That's true but I'm just venting about them deducting the money a month before the original release date—clearly illustrating why this is not a good practice. While I prefer to save money I'm going back to ordering books through my LCS or Amazon of whom neither charge until the item is on hand.

I guess its the skeptic in me, but I feel the same way, although I am really looking forward to the book and hope it comes out this week. :hope:

Amazon would be probably be the cheapest route unless your LCS gives a pretty good discount.

Maybe, but if it was something other than what we were discussing, you would think Dino would have informed us on the cause of the delay.
