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.

I just received the same message this morning. And it wasn't an April Fool's joke. I've been patient, but I am now getting seriously pissed. Has the book even been published? Has anybody seen a copy? I understand that publishers occassionally, under extraordinary circumstances, miss deadlines. Sometimes by a couple days, sometimes a few weeks. But repeatedly denied, month-after-month-after-month-after-month??? Is the publisher trying to stave off bankruptcy, or is the book sitting on the lowest rung of priority possible, or is this simply bullshit and we'll never actually see the book?

Thin_icE · 04.01.2009, 08:40 AM

It seems that my book has arrived today

Haven't been able to see it yet cause I'm at work, can't wait to get home to open it!
It seems that I ordered the English/French bilingual edition, so it must not be a good pointer for you guys.
It should have the 7"s, though.

nicfit · 04.01.2009, 08:41 AM

We ( we as in : me + other people on here) have a copies, it has definitely been published.The thing I'm not sure of is all those amazon copies are supposed to be reprints (with 7" and all) or what... Not sure it's a publisher's fault, buh...Anyone is waiting for their order to be delivered, besides the ones who ordered it from amazon?

edit: aaah, eventually some seemingly good news ^^^!

It does exist. I have a copy, and it's beautiful. If my house was on fire I would save the book before going back in to rescue my girlfriend.

stu666 · 04.01.2009, 12:14 PM

I'm so glad i choose not to go with Amazon now, blunderbuss did warn of this.

Thin_icE · 04.10.2009, 07:07 AM

Could someone upload a high res version of the jolie youth pic? I'd really like to make a tshirt out of it

There's a mid-res version on this thread, but I was searching for a higher-res version.

nicfit · 04.13.2009, 11:28 AM

I think there's no actual hig res version, at least in digital form. the guys who had the sirt done by agusta (contrelefuckingsexisme) or in other forms might give you have a better pic. OR we could work on a vectorized version to make everyone happy and print-friendly-happy....
uh!

ps. the fuck, 6 monts delay from amazon or cancelled orders????

LAME AS FUCK

Thin_icE · 04.14.2009, 04:11 AM

Good thing I ordered my bi-lingual french/english edition. Most of the stuff is in english anyway. I recommend it to anyone who keeps seeing the delivery date pushed forth.

greenlight · 04.14.2009, 05:47 AM

I want to order mine from Amazon. is it safe? I mean, they should physically have them, once it's up on their page for sale?

pokkeherrie · 04.14.2009, 05:50 AM

I wonder if I'll ever get to see mine... ordered it on Feb 2nd.

greenlight · 04.14.2009, 05:56 AM

from Amazon? yeah, that's da thing. it must be something buried in my subconsciousness. I think I've ordered from Amazon once and it was not pleasure experience.

pokkeherrie · 04.14.2009, 06:08 AM

nah, not from amazon, but a dutch equivalent. if i were you i'd order it from the publisher if you can.

nicfit · 04.18.2009, 01:51 PM

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...condition=used

now there's one on amazon

HAHA LOW ITEM PRICE????
btw, it's not even listed on the Walther Konig store as of now...and no idea why in italy it costs 72 Euros and it's not available (they say 5-7 weeks, but I'm not AT ALL sure they're serious ha ha).

the fuck.
xeroxed copies? 720 xeroxed pages would cost quite a lot...
