Almost 2 years of waiting and my book has been lost by "Parcel Force". What a disaster! :p :p :( :p

It last was scanned and held at the local post office and the wonderful staff there have kindly lost my book.

I'm now in the process of complaining and making a claim against the incompetent delivery service, but at the end of day I just want my book.

I wonder if Subterranean Press have contingency copies?

Still no answer to my email by subpress. Starting to get a little annoyed now.

Finally got an answer after my third email was sent, they told me they'd have an answer within 24 hours.
Really not very happy, I expect something a little better for $317.

Well good news, I finally collected my book today! :( It turns out that there are varying degrees of incompetence and fortunately in this case it did not end tragically.

I like the book, but $300 is still quite expensive for this luxury edition.

Veilside - I don't understand the slow response to your queries, but in my experience with Bill from Subterranean Press, he usually responds the next day.

Good luck and I hope you get your edition too.

Thanks Brood. Now if only they can complete the set in the next 10 years :(

I noticed on Amazon they are trying to sell a Limited Edition for £175 so I guess it was a "bargain".

Hi everyone.
I just wanted to note that I just received numbered (396) copy from camelotbooks.com today. After realizing I missed the boat on this book, I went looking around and found they had them at cover price. ($125) I was considering a purchase from an amazon secondary seller for $180, so I saved quite a bit.

Love the book. The cover art is incredible and quality of the materials is high. Not certain if anyone is still looking for this, but it appears they still have some in stock (disclaimer, I'm in no way affiliated with camelotbooks, I just had a decent first time purchase experience).

It's also my first post! I've been lurking for a couple of weeks. Thanks for the great resources for the series.

Gatcha~

Thanks for the tip! I was looking for a left over copy, but could only find them at the ridiculous price of USD 500,- at amazon. I put my order in yesterday and I'm hoping it will arrive soon.

I've learned my lesson and will be on the lookout for the DHG LE and buy that one as soon as it hits the stores.

I've finally had the chance to go back home from uni and have a look at my lettered edition.
First impression, solid packaging from the guys at Subterranean, open it up, nice understated traycase good and solid. And the book inside is just gorgeous, fantastic quality, artwork was definitely worth the wait.

If anyone's keeping track of these things, I've got J.
