So... a change in the shipping date for the DFRPG books.
« on: June 14, 2010, 04:49:36 PM »
From the DFRPG website

Quote
Last week we announced that the books would start shipping on the 30th of June.  We’ve been looking that date over for the last week, talking with our distributors and our warehouse and so on to make sure everything is in place for that date to happen. And that’s when we realized something.

We’ve got it all together well enough that we can ship earlier than the 30th! (That’s right; for once, we’ve got a date on the schedule that’s moving in the other direction.)

Accordingly we’re moving our ship date to June 23rd. That should put books in folks’ hands a week earlier — for some people. during the same days that Origins is happening, where the books will be making first contact with the fans. And that feels about right.

Thank you, Evil Hat! You're not half as evil as your name suggests!

This pleases me. By the time the book is out, I might actually have enough income to afford it.

Yay!  :D

... I'm happy for you guys in the US. I know it's probably the wrong place to ask but: any word on when the books are supposed to make it across the Atlantic Ocean?!

Whoa.

It's going out early?

That's as startlingly shocking as is amazing.

Good news!  I'm one of those old farts who has trouble absorbing new material from a computer screen.  I mean, I can obviously read web pages, and I've read the odd novel in ebook form, but I need a physical book when I'm studying.

Once I've learned the game, the PDFs will be useful to me as a reference.

It's a Buffy reference, just don't remember where in that timeline.

And as long as no one broke the Sixth Law to deliver them early, I think we're okay. ^_^
