the editor/curator Roland Groenenboom just confirmed that and gave me some more info:

if there's going to be a reprint of the book, then it's possibly without the 7" records. all the discs we pressed were used for the first edition. the german version will be available within some weeks from the kunsthalle düsseldorf and museion italy, who also deals with the italian edition. the french is available through LiFE.

You better get your copies right now!!!
other surprises might come soon too.

Please don't tell me that this means that there'll be another edition of the book with different extras....

you would buy it, wouldn't you? :)
something else is planned. when it is realized i'll let you know.

damn I am already broken.
but who cares, eating snow is healthy

Alright then, I finally gave in and bought the fucker.

Now it's off to IKEA to get a coffee table.

i just ordered it from amazon. the book, not the table.

I bought it from selexyz.nl, who have it for the same price as the walter konig site, but with only 95 cents shipping costs.





What do you think, should I get the white, the black-brown or the birch-effect one?

it's too expensive for me...
i'll wait for a possible reissue when i have more money.
but i just can't afford this.
shit.

get this one. it plays flac files too

you mean, you have pre ordered it?

This title will be released on March 1, 2009.
Pre-order now!

ah feck it, I'm ordering it as well right now.....

fucking bastards

Yeah, I've got mine already from a german bookstore. It's such a great book, with so many fantastic pictures :)

Avoid yellow one.

ok, thanx, so that's the one to go for.

aaaah this is where the hate for the (fabolous) rats version comes from
hahahaha

i don't care too much for the 7inch, it's all crap stuff but i'm desperate for this book. I have just had to spend an awful lot of $$$ on the car and that's exactly the money that's lacking now to buy myself a nice well deserved sonic BOOK. shit.

what happened to your car?

bah , just needed some fixin'. Nothing bad at all. it's just expensive to get things done = 600 euros. I could buy 10 Sensational Fix books with that.

yes, I am glad that my dad is an oldschool car mechanic, plus I dunno the english word for it, but something like the mechanic for jet/helicopter engines (but he just not passed the final test, so officially just a car mechanic)
helps me a lot being able to drive a car as a student

ordered it on selexyz.nl (thanks for the tip, pokkeherrie), will pick it up at the bookstore soon.

this seller has 5 copies on ebay

Wow - he's selling them at a reasonable price, and with reasonable postage. I hadn't expected that.

yeah its a few quid cheaper than what i paid, but i'm just glad i finally got this.

4 copies left ...

I don't know. that's what I'm wondering too.....

oh man I miss that ebay!!!! item ended!

^
I'm sure the guy will re-list. Try sending him an ebay message and ask him.

what?
the 7 inch copies are already getting rare?
thats fast.
thanks to nicfit and this thread to reminding me soon enough

Another UK stockist, for the Northern folk:

thanks for reminding me i'm still waiting on mine to arrive.

it's now officially sold out. but they will reprint. there were 1000 copies initially. they didn't count all those sy fans when they printed the catalogue with those 7"s i guess.

It's sold out at the publisher, maybe, but I can't imagine for one moment that every one of the copies printed is now in the hands of Joe Consumer.

I'd fucking hope so.


*calms down self, thinking his copy MUST be arriving one of these days*

I'm glad I bought those 923 copies. Time to open an ebay shop!

I'd like to buy this thing, I completely missed it. Is it still possible to buy the book with the 7"s?

Shit. Looks like I've missed it...

Probably... or else it's at least possible to, huh, listen to them.

ok so am i going to be albe to buy this book at the sensational fix exibithion in dusseldorf (with the 2 7' records)?

I see this in my amazon acct regarding my preorder
Items not yet shipped:
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....V47081670_.gif Shipping estimate: March 4, 2009 - March 5, 2009 1 of: Sonic Youth: Sensational Fix

Got a new email today telling me it won't go out until around March 30. Poop.

I just ordered a copy from http://www.lespressesdureel.com. I emailed them and they said they're expecting to receive them shortly from the printer and that there will be 600 copies, all with the EPs. Hope he didn't fool me :)

waah!
new Amazon estimate
Estimated arrival date: 04/16/2009 - 04/23/2009

I've got a feeling they won't be able to deliver, probably
through no fault of their own.
That said, they've delayed other preorders significantly
before and came through in the end.
