Its ok lol no worries,,, did you manage to get your horns signed too???
I dragged a friend of mine to the Toronto event. It was pretty cool. Mr. Hill seemed like a genuine, down to Earth kinda guy. He looked very tired too.
I didn't take my camera to the event but I did manage to get 8 books signed. We talked comics a little. He's a fan of Brubaker but has read nothing by Ellis. That broke my heart but he more than made up for it with his drawings/doodles and just being a stand up guy.
I just received my two Horns UK 1st/1st that I ordered through Amazon and the books are completely destroyed. I am bummed.
Wow thats rubbish, was there no packaging?
Eric, I'm sorry to hear that. I had my UK copy of Just After Sunset get messed up when it was first published and they asked me to return it. I did so and they sent me a fine copy.

This was the first time I have had a problem with Amazon.UK, I was worried because I also had a shipment from Amazon.DE (the splitter DT comics) that the box was beat up. At least the books from Germany had some packing material to save the books. I have never seen books this badly beaten up, not quite as bad as what Lenny is saying but they both have severe creases through the book, destroyed dust jackets and torn pages.
Shameless promotion for THE HAVEN FOUNDATION charity fundraiser:
A set of three Lock & Key comic books all signed by Joe Hill
Oops, sorry, Brice.
For those interested parties who only look at the dtBay auction but not the related discussion thread, I just posted this:
Of course, this set will be shipped in a box not an envelope.If this thing goes over hundred bucks, I will pay for:
a) If the winner is in the U.S.:
PRIORITY Shipping with Insurance and Delivery Confirmation. Again, on my dime not yours. So you domestic bidders can figure on an additional $10 to $15 of value.
b) If the winner is not in the U.S.:
I have no idea anymore what it costs to ship from the U.S, except that at some point it got expensive as heck. I'll pay for the shipping.
I sent an email to customer service yesterday and received this resonse.
Dear Customer
"Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk.
First of all, please allow me to apologise for the issue you have experienced with this item.
I have placed a new order #XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXX for "Horns", and it will be dispatched at no additional charge as soon as possible to the same address.
On the date of dispatch, we will notify you by e-mail at the time the order is sent out to confirm the date, contents and method of delivery."
Got confirmation today that they have already sent the books. Just hope that they are packed better this time.
Eric
That sounds promising, Eric. Good luck!
Read Horns--gotta say I really enjoyed it-great read!

Welcome.
Brice, you crack me up!
Interesting stuff, Stockerlone. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome. Someone is going to win some valuable things.
Karen, in one of the other threads, there is a recent discussion that you can buy one from VJ Books.
