I just picked up my copy from my FLGS (Dragon's Lair). Good thing I had a copy reserved because they are already sold out. The rumor of the print run being smaller than thought seems to be true.
So if anyone from Austin or nearby, go check out some random bookstores to see if there are any random books floating around. Good luck. |

Yeah, and when I went to pick it up I heard them saying something about going to "Alliance" to get more copies. I am guessing thats their distributor.

Well I guess I'll have to make a trip to Dragon's Lair soon to see the true horror for myself.

I got a shipping notice from the USPS about a week ago, but the tracking info says they dont even have the package yet. I ordered mine from Battlecorps. Anyone else that ordered from battle corps having this problem?

I wouldn't worry too much about that. The USPS tracking is worthless. Several times I have gotten things shipped to me via USPS and received the item before their stupid system had registered receipt of the package. |

As a matter of fact, I just checked my mailbox and low and behold, I just received the LE book I ordered from Battlecorps and the USPS tracking is still showing that they haven't received the package yet.

Mine's the same way. I wouldn't worry about it too much. In the past, I've tried USPS delivery confirmation on items I'd shipped, and the first two times, I heard from the person that I'd shipped it to that it'd been received and the USPS never confirmed it, and the third time, I got a confirmation, but it never arrived at its destination. Gave up after that, and started going with carriers who actually back up their tracking systems with assurances that the data is valid. |

Librairie Le Donjon got them already. I know that Le Valet d'coeur didn't received them yet. Where did you find it? Le Donjon? |

I got my notice 4 days ago from FRP Games. I asked for 2 day shipping. Through tracking, I see that USPS screwed up badly and has not sent me my book yet. Mistakes are made, but I hope they reimburse me my few dollars for the mixup. I don't blame FRP Games in any way. Edit: And that USPS reimburses me. |

Mine arrived this morning. It survived two days in the 'gentle' hands of the Royal Mail :)
It has to be one of the stinkiest books I've come across for a while though. Seriously, whatever they used to print it is really, headache inducingly, smelly..... Or maybe it's just me :) Apart from that it seems fine, now I just need to find time to read it :D |

I got mine at Le Donjon. From what I hear Fanpro has not printed enough copies so they are being allocated in certain quantities to stores. Which explains why Donjon has theirs and not Valet. Even though Valet had preordered copies. |

They're in Cleveland. I just snagged an LE at a retail outlet, without having placed a reservation on it. I'm kind of in a state of shock.

I have seen them in Orlando, Florida, at the Coliseum of Comics on Holden and 441. The books I saw were not leatherbound, so I guess not LE.

Or else the stench of worthless product. I spent a good 30 minutes reading through SR4 in the store todayand have come to the conclusion that it isn't worth it. I won't bore you with what I dislike about as I've already done that in prevous posts. Systems Failure will probably the last dollar Fan Pro will ever see out of me. |
