This production is beautiful. The spine, the boards, the endpapers that feel like they look, the artwork. Congratulations to the Suntup team on another amazing edition.

Oh boy!
My BLACKWATER was delivered, but who knows where!
I talked to the mailman who has no recollection of delivering a package anywhere.
I called the post office, and they said they'll figure it out.
Let's hope so!
As some writer or somebody said, it's probably much ado about nothing.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
Mine is delayed. I hope to get by Wed now.

Everything about the JAWS AE is top notch. The new content, the design including the colored page block, the limitation page, the packing foam, and even the packaging tape. What a fun experience all around. Well executed, Team Suntup!

I just secured a #d LTROI for a really good price from the Facebook group, can't wait for it to come! My second book case will also be ready soon.
I am desperately in need of more room, with more coming I can't wait to be able to spread some of these books out and actually display some of them
P.s at least 4 or 5 of the books in the picture (mostly non Suntup) were bought from people here Excited to give these books some room to breathe
Congratulations! It’s a beautiful book!

I must have only posted pics of Jaws AE in my thread, but is a spectacular ed. The case, the DJ, the extras all make this a very good addition to a collection.
And I got an email that my BB AE will soon be on it's way. Can't wait for that one either.
Paul, you are really hitting on all cylinders.

I think Suntup is going to be the thing that finally drives me to Facebook (I need to see these videos; sometimes I can access them, sometimes I can't).
It seems I'm miles above the surface of the Earth
I can see across the whole of London and beyond
Just saw the vid. Some exciting stuff. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Someone sent me a reputation comment with a message attached and i'm not really sure how the reputation communication system works or even how to find it on these boards.
Their message stated "Do you keep any of your Suntup books, haha"
Now I'm unsure if this was done in snark or what. I'm thinking it might not have been, as they used the poor mans' emoticon of haha on the end but i'm not sure, rofl, because they chose to comment from a position of anonymity instead of sending me a pm. BUT i'm unsure of how to reply to this comment (or if you can at all) and I cant even find the reputation section and/or read the comment again.
In any case I've decide to just answer that query out loud in the forum, for whatever it's worth!
I have kept a majority of my Suntup books. I got literally the last seat on the train when I bought the very last Eyes of the Dragon Portfolio upon the announcement of Misery. I own (and still own) all of the books with the exception of Brother through the Wells trilogy. I fell off the train and lost my number because I thought I would be able to buy a numbered copy of Brother after the original weekend solicitation (since I knew that, most probably, the newly increased to 500 limitation would not sell out on solicitation day) and that was not the case. Stayed off for few books and got back on at Red Dragon.
Suntup numbered are expensive and I am a blue collar worker. It is hard, at times, for me to even afford these readable works of art at all, much less at the pace of 1 per month.
I am a person who likes matched numbers. even though i will never have a completely matched numbered set. I like to try and keep my rights so that if a book comes out that I like it can be matched with the current number I am holding.
I normally choose to sell a book if I don't like the book, or perhaps if I am too poor at the moment to facilitate purchasing it, and normally try to do it during preorder with the contingency that I keep the rights.
To date I have pre-sold:
Imagica: (even though I like Barker the price point was expensive and I preferred the design of the AE which I also bought)
Blackwater: (I own a copy of the Centipede production and didnt feel the need for two expensive books of this title)
Hex: (was just a little broke to afford this one at the time of solicitation, and pre-sold it while buying an AE, even though i enjoyed the look of the #ed)
I currently own all of the other books and a good number of the AEs as well (although I have stopped buying all AEs direct from publisher as carrying the monthly payment of the more expensive numbered is retaining my focus and the AEs are fairly easily obtained on the aftermarket)
I am currently carrying 4 monthly partial.ly payment plan payments and figure as the Omen is a novelization, it is one I can skip.
I appreciate the folks who have bought pre-orders from me as it has helped me to retain my number. I have found buyers both on these very boards as well as Facebook groups.
I hope this answers the question, and I sincerely hope it wasn't asked in snark.
Collecting Suntup can certainly be a rich man's game, but Paul has done a lot of things to get his books into the hands of people across different demographics, including offering payment plans, designing lower cost books (AEs), or upping AE limitations.
Now, does anybody want to buy my pre-order OMEN

hahaha, cool, i just am amiss at how the reputation comment stuff works LOL
I was trying to reply directly to the rep comment and couldnt find out how to do it
In a perfect would I would keep all my books but at times I have to pick and choose.
It definitely aint getting any easier with new publishers entering the market, as well.
It is the Golden Age of the S/N LE small press book.

Hey Lookwhoitis, that explanation is golden.
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
I bought Hannibal but I never got a matching number preorder email...
EDIT: It arrived just took a while.
Not sure if I want this one...

This is the very first AE I was not home to order. Couldn't be helped, just one crisis after another.
I am exploring possibilities.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
I believe Subterranean Press had some available. If not, try Camelot Books, and if all else fails, Dark Regions Press.
Just checked - still available at Sub Press - https://subterraneanpress.com/all-books/preorders/omen
