¡Enhorabuena! Ya me contarás cómo has conseguido la edición “lettered”

The lettered was complicated, and I freaked out when I saw that the page appeared and had no links.
After I had been waiting an hour, with 3 screens and being as ready as it was humanly possible.
I tried playing with css, which didn't work... but found another way.
So I got an email confirmation :)
I think that the technical issue definitely made them available for longer than they would have otherwise. I think there were lettered for a good 40mins and in normal condition they would have sold in 2 mins
Report from the CD forum; S/L just sold for $700 on the eBay.
I just publish an entry in my blog about the yesterday race to purchase a "Later" limited edition.
:nana:
I've mention some of you, buddies :-)

My contact told me at Titan just now that they have NEVER even come close to the sheer volume of people on their server/site as there was yesterday. They were floored.
I'm guessing Nostradamus doesn't work there. Maybe they should have consulted with the many other book sellers who screwed up prior King events. It didn't top the Boston fiasco where they oversold tickets but close. I'm not sure there is a perfect way to do this given the demand. Maybe a lottery. Buy the trade edition from them and get entered in the lottery to buy the numbered. I'm sure they don't care who they sold the books too, though, as long as they sold.
The overselling of tickets to the Full Throttle/Institute appearance. I got lucky on that one. This one not so much, but I did get one off Jerome.
Somewhat unrelated but not having read any Hard Case books other than King's, I started "Charlesgate Confidential." And it's pretty good. It even reminds me a bit of something King might write. Mostly "Hearts in Atlantis."
News from ForbiddenPlanet.com - Interesting if you bought a Later Limited Edition from this website
It seems that the have troubles to ship items. I suppose that It could be solved at the release date.
EU & International Customers: We're very sorry, unfortunately we are currently unable to ship items to the EU or internationally at the present time. We are working with our shipping carriers get this resolved as quickly as possible.
I presume this is COVID related - hopefully they can figure this out in the next month...publication date at end of March - so hopefully enough time
It’s more than likely brexit related. Whole thing’s a shambles.
DAVID has a Lettered Later up for auction!
Any word when the Later s/l is going to be released?
