I'm probably going to buy a copy of the reprint of the DG:EO chapbooks from Pagan Publishing, since I love their stuff.

If anyone in the UK would like to lump some copies together and then see about cheaper shipping, I'd be happy to investigate. I'm heading to NJ for a couple of weeks on Monday, so no rush on this....

Great idea Allan!!
Count me in for one please.
I am sure there are a few others here who would be interested. I think the three in one reprint is a great deal considering (and apparently there is some new stuff there too!)

Do not wait too long. I just had a look at Dennis's Blog
(Setting up the server! - entry 97) and the quote is:

Keep in mind, that number is not number of copies, but number of orders placed
-- we're seeing nearly as many 2, 3 and 4 copies placed at one time as singular copies.
Just to give an idea, the number sold is well over 500 now.

Oh. Thanks for the heads-up Jason. Perhaps I'll have to put an order in sooner vs. later then. I'm still willing to wait until the weekend, though, since that should be safe (he says hopefully?

No problem Allan.
I did not see an answer to your question about Gencon availability either.
But if they have sold over 500 in less than a week I would not bet on it.

I agree Jason, and the avail was already Aug/Sept so it's not likely to meet the window to release at GenCon, regardless....

Well, if you don't mind shipping the book to Italy, count me in for two copies

I'll pay my own shipping of course.

That's fine Alex. Anyone else? I'll likely place the order later tonight.

Great! I'm running a little Delta Green campaign right now and albeit we have some difficulties to distinguish the various US law enforcement agencies (for Italians there are FBI, CIA and a little else...), we have a blast!

The six books arrived yesterday.

I'll pack then up for shipping by the weekend, hopefully, and will email the both of you with a Paypal invoice after I've got the postage figured.

It took awhile for these to finally arrive, but the books look quite good

Damn it!
I ordered before you Allan and I'm still waiting. :lol:

If it comes today Canada Post will have to hitch up the sled dogs.

And I still had to go into work yesterday.

As a side note, I see they're already down to less than 90 of the non-preorder copies left.

I'm thinking that maybe they are shipping them out alphabetically by last name. Badmike and Grodog already got theirs and their last names are ahead of mine alphabetically. Hopefully that means I will get mine in the next few days.
