Bulk Order Update

[ironphoenix]

Nothing that was already on order as of the last update has come in, but a few people added new material, so here's another update.

Also, it's time to think about paying for all this, so there's some stuff about logistics under the cut too.

Paying: The order will go through next Friday (March 6^th). I will be at dagibbs' games day this Sunday, so that may be a convenient time to get money to me; alternatively, you can catch me somehow during the week, or wait as long as next Saturday (March 7^th) for my next games day, at which time stuff will also be available for pick-up. You can give someone money to bring to me as you like; if you want someone else to pick up your games for you, please let me know!

Anything that is still on order and comes in after you pay, you should specify what you want me to do with. I'm willing to float all of you whom I've met until at least the Saturday, and if zenten or waterspyder speaks for you, jenunderscore_ and firedolljamie, you'll get the same deal. Naturally, you can put a limit on how much you want added at the last minute! feli_valkyria, I'm already assuming that you want me to get the dice for you under this arrangement.

Boo hoo hoo.

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

That's the way it goes, sometimes!

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, The Flood got delayed, Evernight and 50 Fathoms are *long* out of print, and fuck it, I can order KAMB for $20 directly from their website. I don't need them.

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

*nod* Oh well...

[ranisilath.livejournal.com]

[...] and fuck it, I can order KAMB for $20 directly from their website. I don't need them.

Amusingly, this seems to be KAMB's publisher's attitude towards the distributors. Fandom's had a copy on back order since the previous bulk order -- let's say November of 2008 -- and there's no sign that it's going to show up any time soon.

[ranisilath.livejournal.com]

*sigh* No edit functionality.

Of course, it could also be down for reprint; this can take a shocking long time.

[beable]

My Icehouse interest was price dependent, and as I don't want to get stuck if they come in at the last minute and turn out to have been more than I thought they were worth, can you drop them?

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

Do you want to set a limit price?

[beable]

Mmm, sure. I'm interested at up to $14 each (pre-discount price).

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

Done!

And this is why I love negotiation games... I like to be The Guy Who Makes The Deal Work.

[zenten.livejournal.com]

jenunderscore_ and firedolljamie are good for it.

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

I figured, but you hadn't actually said anything about knowing them that well yet!

[shyska.livejournal.com]

I know it is way late and I have little idea what is going on here, but I am curious if it might be possible to get a deck of Set cards. I have decided recently that I would like to buy this game, so if it is a possibility, please let me know. Since we rarely see each other, I could possibly (with her consent of course, haven't broached the subject with her yet) give the money to ilanikhan to give to you.

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

I'll add it to the request list, and if it's there next Friday, I'll grab it. My guess is that it's on the order of $20; what's your limit?

[ranisilath.livejournal.com]

Honestly, don't bother. Fandom doesn't normally carry the "family" games (Set, Bananagrams, King's Cribbage, etc.), and only one of their distributors carries those sorts of games -- usually at Christmas time. (Hence why Bananagrams and King's Cribbage turned out to be available: the former was asked for a month or so before Christmas (on a previous bulk order), and the latter caught the tail end of the distributor's Christmas stock.)

In any event, we're past the time when things not physically in the store (or already due to arrive) can be ordered and still show up for next Friday.

Try Miss Tiggy Winkles; I got my copy of Set at the Bank St. location, but they'll probably be able to ship merchandise between stores.

[shyska.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the info.

[shyska.livejournal.com]

According to what ranisilath replied below,it looks like a no-go.
No biggie, and thanks anyway.

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

I'll take a quick look when I'm there on Friday and grab it for you if I see it, if you like. As he says, the odds aren't exactly good, but stranger things have happened.

[shyska.livejournal.com]

Sounds good, and thank you.

[ancalagon-tb.livejournal.com]

Until when will you be at dagibb's ? I *might* be able to see you then. The move is complicating things

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

I understand. I expect to be there until somewhat after dinnertime, but even if I leave before gaming is done for the evening, I would be fine with you leaving the money with him, since we see each other quite regularly!

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

Okay, that didn't work... next plan?

[ancalagon-tb.livejournal.com]

is dropping money at his place for you still a possibility? I never got home on Sunday, sorry :(

[ironphoenix.livejournal.com]

No problemo for me... if you and he can work it out, I'm good to go. Are you also okay with him picking up your books?
