My order was #102... Dang, you have to wake up pretty early to beat the Acaeum masters to a deal. :)


Hello Mrs. Cleaver, Theodore.

Gee, Mrs. Cleaver ... That certainly is a lovely dress.

Guess Order 97 is for 5 copies - we could place bids on who it is.

Absolutely correct!  This is very exciting to watch, almost intoxicating.  :D  :D  :D
 
A newly released item with a limited print run transforming into an insta-collectible, unavailable item, at least for a 1st print. ;)
Too bad the PPP site does not have a real time counter to show how many remain.  I know there are inventory counts for items like Bottle City but for the bundled products, I am not sure they are all linked together.

So based on past history how long do you think it will be before the Fan Combo Pack #2 sells out? Today, tomorrow, this week, next week, next month?

Inquiring minds want to know! :lol:

Just got confirmation from Eric that I was order #105 and my payment was accepted although the order on my account is still pending due to the problem I had during the process.  :D

I have a feeling that the combo pack #2 will sell out pretty quickly.  Especially if people are ordering multiples.  Was there any mention of a limit on those?

With 200 copies, I was guessing this week sometime.  At the price point of $46.95 for all three deluxe and limited editions, this seems like a bargain compared to the $150 for the limited edition Bottle City.  

My call is for next weekend, but then what do I know.  ;)

I think it depends on how many multiples are ordered. Personally, this is the first PPP product I'm not ordering multiples of (economic recession and all that) and I wonder how many other "reliables" are cutting down on their multiple orders because of the economy, job loss, etc.

I don't know that the "new" items should attract any more interest for collectibility sake, than, say, CAS1, CAS2 or Bottle City.  They are all limited in quantity also, and CAS1 has not been available for years, while Bottle City is an absolutely incredible product with a lot of historical value.  Then again I'm always shocked when a "runic" copy goes for much more over cover price, since there was really no difference between that and a "regular" copy of PPP's early stuff.  If I'm pissing on the parade just let me know.... :wink:

Should be fun to see though.  I hope everything goes smoothly. For one thing first off I'm glad they are shipping priority mail, I do believe this will ease the shipping problems from before IMMENSELY and lead to quicker and easier transactions.  Plus shipping supplies are free, how can you beat that?

This is going to make it seem like Castle Zagyg took ages to sell out.

Thanks for the feedback on IE7 guys:  I don't have that on my work PC, and didn't get a chance to test it last night.  

If I understand what the IE7 users were seeing, it sounds identical to the FF 3.0.6 users, right?  

(And I was order 122 this morning, FYI).

No problem, Mike.  We all know you are one, shrew'd cookie when it comes to RPG collectibles.  :D

Seriously though, I missed out on the pre-order for Bottle City and almost missed out on Castle Zagyg so I wasn't going to let this one get away.  Unlike a lot of other collectors here I was out of D&D, role playing and games for a long time so was blissfully unaware of all that I was missing....

Bottle What?
Rappan Atthuk Re-Something?
Castle Thingy?
Cairn of Who?

Now, I have to pay a premium just to catch up. :)  But I guess, that's all part of the collecting fun, isn't it?

This is also the first one that I haven't ordered multiples of either.
