Hi, all. Jamie has asked me to inform everyone that the copies of the DLCS at MargaretWeis.com are now out of stock. However, all orders will be fulfilled once new copies are in stock.

Thanks!

If we placed an order already, is there anyway to know if ours was accepted or not?

Though I ordered mine on the 2nd, I only sent the Paypal today (after recieving Jamie's email about the payment changes) -- would that cause any problmes?

(I'm SO paranoid about these things...)

Ok this REALLY sucks. I ordered my copy before I left on vacation at the beginning of July and now I get back from vacation to find out my copy was never really ordered since their billing system didn't work and I had to go through Paypal. Now I enter the paypal information and come here to find out the books are out of stock?

Am I going to be waiting til GenCon now? If so please let me know so I can email to have my copy cancelled. I'd rather buy it from my local retailer if I have to wait til then.

Mine shipped out over a week ago, and I've still yet to recieve it, although it seems most everyone else from that batch got their's days ago (including folks in my own state) -- I'm starting to get paranoid again...

I pay palled my money in ages ago, and have yet to get my book or anything other than a confirmation that they got my money. I have sent in an email asking about the status of my order, but its been a few days with still no reply. *frets*

Hello everyone!

I realize that everyone wants to have their copy right now! I also realize that many of the problems we've had since start-up have slowed things down, and they are OUR problems, not yours!

Hopefully you guys will have some patience. It would have been much easier to simply hold our copies to sell at GenCon, since I was taking a vacation immediately after Origins. Also understand that MargaretWeis.com is not part of my duties at Sovereign Press, and I have to manage it on my own time.

Margaret, Renae, and I (the three-person staff of MargaretWeis.com) have worked hard to overcome the early roadblocks. We have been shipping out books in order of payment received. When I get home this evening, I will send out an update e-mail to let everyone know where we stand and whose books have shipped. Domestic orders should take 2-3 days, while International orders can take as many as 10 days to arrive.

Everyone who has already ordered and paid will still get their books before they are available at your local game store. I will do my best to improve communication, and I thank you all in advance for your patience.

If anyone gets completely fed up and does not wish to go forward with their purchase, we will be happy to cancel any current orders that have yet to ship and give the purhaser a full refund.

Take care!

When I checked the site there wasn't an option for orders outside the US and Canada! I miss something?

We were overwhelmed with requests, so we are offering international shipping as well! International shipping costs $10.00 US per book ordered. We have already shipped off at least seven or eight copies of the DLCS to international customers.

I just rechecked the site, but there is no option for international orders.

Just US and Canada. What am I missing?

There's my question -- mine supposedly shipped over a week ago and I've heard nothing of it since, and I know that others in NJ (like Maldaar) got their's days ago...

It's taking longer to answer my e-mail than it is to get the book to most people....

Does anyone check the e-mail at [email]sales@margaretweis.com[/email]?

Well, today I got the book in the mail, then I got the email saying it had been shipped later. Talk about speedy delivery.

11 days since shipping confirmation and STILL no sign of my copy -- am I the only one with a missing book?

I emailed the site but got no response...

has everyone seen the new message on margaretweis.com??? It says that they have left for GenCon, will be gone till the 28th, and all orders are on hold till then. !!! This is just a tad bit annoying, since I e-mailed [email]sales@margaretweis.com[/email] last week and asked if they were getting anymore copies in before the beginning of August, and I got a reply saying they would have more by the end of the week (around the 18th, I assume.) After getting that answer I immediately put in my order. If I had been told that, although they were getting more copies, they were not going to be fulfilling orders until after the 28th, I would not have even bothered, even though the signed copy would have been nice. I still haven't decided whether I'm going to cancel my order with margaretweis.com, but I can't help but feel kind of irked by this...

I think they were sending out the new shipment before they left, to the people who ordered very long ago (and payed too).

At least I hope so. The e-mail said if they received payment before Saturday, they'd send 'em out then. Sorry you missed out though.
