Mine is the same. I put broadart covers on them and they fit nicely now!Quote:

Often times they’ll take into consideration putting covers on the books; otherwise the slipcase would be “too tight” if said covers were put on. I personally prefer a case that takes this into consideration.Quote:

So the looseness of the cases was not intentional. Something happened in manufacturing, we're not really sure what, but they weren't loose enough to warrant sending them back to the manufacturer and delay the project further. As the manufacturer would have to have remade them from scratch. Delaying the project another 6 months.
Just checked the production updates page.

I think they only update if something changes. :rolleyes3: I think certain books will never get
published. It depends on how many new products they start. Lesser products will just keep
getting pushed back. This is only my opinion :shrug:
I would encourage everyone to flip through their pages of each title in Strange Weather. My copy of Snapshot has these weird dust ball/stains/blemishes on a few pages. Tried to remove/blow them away but they only smudged. Of course it had to be the book with the signature sheet. :arg:

Great QA.Quote:

Yup, Mindy has one on the way. :)
Want a mini production update?
Francois Vaillancourt is signing the copies of "A face in the crowd / The longest december", so I am guessing also the sheets for the lettered edition
That’s very encouraging news considering how recently the limiteds were announced!Quote:

Mostly about the "Books From Other Publishers, Custom Slipcases, and related items" part related to slipcases
A thought on the production update page that maybe Dan will consider - it would be helpful if there was a "last updated" date next to each of the titles on the page, since an update to the page does not necessarily mean a status update for each of the individual titles...
THAT is an excellent idea. Saw that the status update page has FINALLY been updated - nothing new on The Stand though.Quote:

I think that is the last book I have on preorder with CD at this point. I may have another but can’t find my list at the moment.
Hey there all, my name is Dan Franklin! I work at CD, have been in the warehouse for quite a few years and now helping to pick up some new duties. I can't promise answers to all your questions(I'm also writing each night, primary care for my daughter, etc), but I can promise I will do my best to be honest with you and give you updates as best available if you have specific inquiries. I know there have been a load of delays, and I hope you can hang in there while we try to get them resolved. I'd just like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all customers and all those who help uphold the horror community. I know, I know, that and two nickels will buy you a dime, but it is well and truly meant just the same
For non-specific info, the website should be pretty regularly updated moving forward!
Hi Dan, and welcome!
