But will it come in a "plain brown wrapper"? That would be cutting into the Thunderbird trade!

Looks great I just received a copy of your 1st book - Collectors Guide To the Savage Model 99. - Now I will have to get in line. It has been a great help with my dads collection.

The publisher sent me the old manuscript rather than the revised one so I'm dead in the water on this revision. I emailed him about the problem this morning and haven't heard anything back. Bet I don't hear anything until Monday. I am sure it will be blamed on some incompetent "girl".

These two posts are news to me. Do you think the publisher keeps writers in the dark? I guess I'd better get busy on the revisions. I'm glad to see the price will be 79.99. I thought the 900 plus pics would run the price much higher.

Thought David knew about it, so didn't mention it. You'd think the publisher would mention to him that they'd be publicizing it..

I just pre-ordered mine as well.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…” Yes I did get the COVTARD jab...

got Jersey boy and JorgeI on the list. Hopefully I'll get the books 9-28 and will be able to ship them immediately. I'll ask for payment when the I'm sure of the date I'm getting the books. I'll ship them media mail which hopefully will still cost less than $5.

Looking at prices now, something like your first book would be under $5 for media mail. Jumps up a lot after that, especially if you're paying retail USPS prices. Don't pay retail.. ping me if you are faced with paying counter rates for USPS. I'll point you to a way to get lower prices.
Never know what they'll do with prices by September, tho.

Thanks Rory, It was costing the better part of $15 to send the other book to the East Coast by priority a few years ago. It may be a lot higher by Sep.
