There was a pre-order for signed copies I knew nothing about, and they look all snatched up, except for eBay re-sellers.

Update on finding the signed copies…

Click the “See More U.S. & International Retailers” link and work through the retailers to find one that is still selling copies.

Well, so much for that. This morning I received the following message from the retailer where I placed my order for a signed copy:

“Unfortunately we have confirmed with the publisher and were notified that we will not be receiving these signed copies. These are for events only and were listed on the website in error. We apologize for the inconvenience.”

But that seems to mean that Alex will be doing some kind of book tour!

When it comes to signed anything, I always prefer a signed in person rather than ordered and signed.

I wonder if these signed copies are auto pen or legit hand signed copies with a COA ?

There have been other books with similar claims that ended up being something that wasn’t authentic.


When you turn on your stereo, does it return the favor?

^ Just saw this…

£70.00 ($132 $Aud), including postage to Oz..

Already got a unsigned copy on order and I’ll probably regret it but I’m gonna pass on this one.

I don’t think it’s wrong to wait on signed copies. There are no real hard details on anything yet. Will there be a signing tour? Will the books be hand signed, or will they be bookplates? Still too many unanswered questions IMO.

That being said, I’ve got 5 copies on order to cover bases, but I know I’ll be canceling some of them.
