In what comes as a bit of a surprise....
« on: June 25, 2012, 01:06:35 PM »
...GW has filled ALL of my preorder requests on the two special edition books!


If (and only if) you placed a preorder with me for a Collector's or Gamer's Edition book, you WILL be able to pick it up on Saturday.

If you placed a preorder for the normal rulebook or any of the other new products you'll be able to pick it on Saturday also, but that's not much of a surprise.

Yaus!   I will certainly collect my collector's edition from you on Saturday? 

Now the only question is, what time do you open?

And I'll be up on Saturday as well, to get my gamer's edition and to hang out for a bit.  Screw work.  I work every Saturday, the one time I want one off they tell me they might not beable to let me off.  I'm just going to call in sick if I can't get it off.

I'm surprised it took that long before they were sold out.  I was guessing 2 days at the most.

As of 5:06pm the gamers edition is now off the GW website.

Yeah.... So I just got off the phone with GW.  They have told me that I might not get ANY of the "special edition" books after all.

He is going to call me back tomorrow to let me know "for real."


Awesome how I get told, "You're all set" at 11am and at 5pm it's a completely different story.

I can't express how irritated I am right now.

I'm sure that there is a Meme out there that describes it.  Or at least the GW symbol wearing the "Scumbag Steve" hat.

If I don't get my Collector's Edition after Everything Chase went through I will go to Games-Workshop and Perform My People's Native Dance there in Protest.
I ride in on my Bike with my Hat of awesome and say Nay this place should be on fire.
