Default What's up re: BG Unofficial Companion?

Anyone know what's delaying new printings of the Battlestar Galactica Unofficial Companion? I ordered it from Amazon.com on December 1 and since then have received notification of delay after delay after delay. It's now scheduled for an April 2-16 arrival/delivery--which at this point is IMO doubtful.

Anyone else in the same boat or "in the know" regarding what's up?

I don't know about Amazon's delay, but I would order it from an Amazon seller if I were you. You can get one for only $19.99...

Thanks, Charybdis--that advice was MUCH appreciated and saved me some $$$. Assuming it's in stock with one of their sellers, I should get it Saturday or Monday at the latest. (I've been waiting so long for it, though, that I'll have to see that to believe it!)

Thanks again!

Hi,

I ordered a copy from BookSurge.com last month. Haven't received it yet. Don't order it from Amazon.com for $39 when BookSurge.com has it for $19.

Regards,

Nathan

Hi,

The quality of the Star Blazers DVDs are good. Not outstanding, but good. They were digitally remastered. It's like Battlestar Galactica, the special effects were very good for the time and still manage to hold up well today. Same thing with Star Blazers.



Regards,

Nathan

Hi,

I'm happy to report that my copy of The Unofficial Battlestar Galactica Companion arrived today, exactly one month after BookSurge.com cashed my check. BookSurge.com charges $19 for the book, while Amazon.com charges $39! This is one case where it really bites to order from Amazon.com! For those interested, here is the link:

http://www.booksurge.com/author.php3...ntID=IMPR02403

The total price is $25.85 with shipping, and you can pay online by credit card or send in a check or money order by U.S. Mail.

Regards,

Nathan

Nathan,

Many thanks, I ordered the book from BookSurge last week and it came today all the way from the U.S.A.!

Best,

Peter
