The book is just as informative as the SAGA products, it's stylistically pleasing, and it is very easy to see why so many who worked on it called it a labor of love. Just leafing through the pages makes it obvious that this book was created for DL fans by DL fans. The DLCS was certainly worth the wait.:D :D :D :D :D :D

That brings a tear to my eye. *sniff*

Grrrrrr it still says on amazon that this item has not yet been released. I may as well just cancel it and go buy it a local comic shop
That would be a good plan seeing as to you could get it in minutes as opposed to at least another day of waiting

Same situation here. According to Amazon, I have an expected delivery date of April 2004.
I'm guessing (and hoping) that this is wrong, but who knows. I already went to the stores in town today, and nobody has it. Guess I'll be leaving my order unless I come across it first. Rosisha
Seriously though, why is amazon giving such radically different dates to people?!
EDIT: Ok I just decided to go do some sleuthing on the Amazon webpage and they said that the SHIPPING date is Sept 8th. For a large variety of reasons, but they don't make sense.
Now I could be COMPLETELY wrong here, but I thought Amazon would simply place the order for the books they need to the publisher (i.e. send us 100000 copies of "Blah") who would then publish that and send them to Amazon who would pack them up and ship them out to whoever ordered them.
All of the ordering should have been done before the release date (as I did a preorder to get it as soon as it comes out! deal thingy), so is Amazon just low on the list of people to ship the books too or are they just really slow in their shipping department?
I checked my local gaming store, they aren't going to carry DLCS until October. Dumb game store people. The next nearest one of any quality (and i'm not boycotting) is about an hour and a half away from me and my car died

I wrote them, as that seems way too long, and clarified things. The response they sent is below:
"Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.ca.
I apologize for any misunderstanding about the delivery estimate for
your order. We rely on the publisher for release date
information. Our most recent information was that "Dragonlance
Campaign Setting" is not yet released.
Once this item has been released and we receive copies, we will be
able to ship it to you. It is not uncommon for there to be a delay
of several weeks between the release and distribution of a new
publication.
When your order is shipped, you should receive an e-mail message
confirming the date, contents, and method of your shipment. As per
our standard policy, we do not charge you for items until they enter
the shipping process, so you will not be charged for this item until
it is available and we have shipped it to you.
Thanks for shopping at Amazon.ca."
It appears that it won't be November....it's probably just faulty info in the database....it's just not going to ship right away.
I can't see them being that much worse than Chapters, and once the release date comes around, Chapters tends to start shipping product pretty quickly.
In any case, I went down and flipped through it at the store, and I can wait. I'm excited, as the book looks cool.....but it's $20 less at Amazon. That money I'm using to buy another RPG book.....so it's worth waiting
