I was tempted by this, but really couldn’t justify the £95 price tag.
That’s a lot of money for a book. Especially for one that’s basically a reprint. I also do have the softcover of this book, so I’d only be buying an ‘upgrade’.

I’m always a little bit reluctant to handover cash six months or so before a product is released. The ‘Quarter 4’ release date is a little vague too.

Still, it does look nice and can understand why people would want it.

Has anyone who ordered one received their copy yet? Still waiting on mine.

The supplier said around Oct 20th they were ready to ship but here we are more than 2 weeks on and nothing.

I get COVID is a factor these days but comms on this haven't been great.

The whole thing seemed a little 'woolly' and this was the reason I didn't order.

It looked like they wanted money up front but could only provide an estimated delivery date of 'Quarter 4', which seemed a little too broad for my liking. They were pretty much stating they didn't have an accurate timescale, which is fine considering the current world problem. However, if they're taking full payment in advance, I think they should've provided a little bit better information.


That being said, I'm sure they'll deliver on promises.

Coincidentally (or not) I just received an email update today indicating they're shipping now.

Will update this thread as or when I receive....

Don't have mine yet but I'm used to being last in line.

Quite looking forward to it, presentation looks perfect.

Mine arrived today and I'm pretty blown away by how good it looks.

I will make an effort to post some photos later.

Got mine, even!

Quite a pleasing package, as they say.

Minor quibble - that black linen style cover is almost too delicate. Merely running your finger across it when removing the plastic leaves a mark.
