I just received confirmation this morning. I ordered my copy on April 21st.

[tippy4]

Me too....ordered mine April 22nd.

So we are looking at a 20-22 day lag time.

[wizardsrainbow]

Whew! I just got confirmation for my order of both states of the book. Matching numbers to boot!

[LostAlivE]

I received my e-mail saying I had one of each reserved for me. I was kinda worried yesterday after seeing everyone get their e-mail and I hadn't. This is a relief.

I also ordered mine on Apr 20 and got confirmation for both books yesterday. Hopefully they will be in before I ship out this summer.

[tippy4]

Anybody hear anything new on this?

[lophophoras]

Nope. I checked the site the other day to see if there were any updates and nothing was mentioned. Maybe we'll hear something soon.

[wizardsrainbow]

I e-mailed Paul 2 days ago. I got a response which said something like, we hope to get this out within the next several months.

So, not anytime soon folks.

[Tito_Villa]

Well atleast they haven't taken our money yet unlike some other publishers!

[tippy4]

BUMP.

Anyone have any news?

[Eric719691]

I paid for mine in July since I was going to be gone until next January. Paul said at that time they were hoping for a late fall publishing date.

This came via email today:

"The Very Best of Best New Horror is also back on track after an issue with the printer, and is set for publication by the end of this year; the deluxe edition is sold out, but a small pile of signed & numbered copies remain."

[jhanic]

I just got this from Paul at Earthling Publications in response to my question on shipping:

Hi John,

With luck, late December for the numbered and approx 2 months later (for slipcases to be made) for the deluxe.

Thanks,
Paul

Come to think of it, maybe it should go into the CD thread???

[LostAlivE]

Has anyone here have to pay for their order yet? I haven't received anything from them or do I need to get in touch with them about it?

[Tito_Villa]

No it looks like you pay when the book is ready to ship, i like it much better that way

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

The first page said is was signed by King, but now it's not. I'm not intereted in it now.

The first post should be edited to show the correct information.

[ELazansky]

There are two versions - the limited offered by CD is not signed by King. The deluxe edition is signed by King and is sold out

Log on to you account at CD and check past orders.

[frik]

I ordered directly from Earthling Publications.
Come to think of it, it must have been the deluxe edition...

I asked Mr. Miller this morning and he said he hopes around March 2011.

Speaking of Earthling, though it's a little off the Stephen King topic: For those who do not receive Paul's email bulletins, I received the following today that some of you may be interested in:

HUGE SALE! Select titles over 50%-75% off!

Now til 11:59pm Boston time Sunday Nov 14 -- four days only.

Please email me at earthlingpub@yahoo.com with a list of the books you want, whether you're in the US or not, and I'll email a total with postage.

Please do not send numerous follow-up emails if you don't hear back from me immediately -- I'll need time to process orders and determine availability of copies (for some titles, not many copies remain).

APOCALYPSE NOW, VOYAGER, $5 (retail $15)
EL DIA DE LOS MUERTOS, $10 (retail $30)
RIVERSIDE BLUES, $5 (retail $15)
THE HAUNTED FOREST TOUR, $10 (retail $45)
WORLD OF HURT, $10 (retail $40)
KING RAT, $20 (retail $85)
MIDNIGHT ON MOURN STREET, $5 (retail $16)
MOONTOWN, $10 (retail $40)
OCTOBER DARK, $15 (retail $50)
AMERICAN MORONS, $10 (retail $24)
THE SNOWMAN'S CHILDREN, $20 (retail $85)

I was especially pleased as I have been nearly ready to place an order for Mieville's King Rat for a couple of weeks in anticipation of matching my limited set of The City & The City, Kraken, and the forthcoming Perdido Street Station. Needless to say, I was more than thrilled to get it for nearly 75% off. At least I hope I do at any rate. I have yet to hear back from him regarding a confirmation. He did mention it might take some time to get everything caught up.

Anyway, I thought a few of you may be interested in this sale also.
