Amazon and 21 nights

I am so annoyed that Amazon have left it until today to advise me that '21 nights' is not available for delivery yet.

I, like many others ordered this book back in April and have so been looking forward to its arrival. I am very disappointed that Amazon are still unable to give me a delivery date. I think they are hoping that everyone will cancel the order because they priced it to low.

I have complained to Amazon and am awaiting a response - will copy it to you when it arrives.

I even reserved the book today at Waterstones as they had one copy left. By the time I got into town, no one could find it. So I'm even more pissed off.

Sorry for starting a new thread, but its very depressing reading everyone's rave reviews when I haven't even seen the book yet.

so, what is the answer 2 the question of U

I got an email on Saturday that mine was shipped & should be here today.
Today, I got an email saying they've lowered the price to $30. and I would be getting a $1.50 refund. boxed

Bummer! sad

They should have strived to be fair to those who pre-ordered that far back. What's going on with Amazon...I wonder? Or maybe...Prince's doing? neutral confuse

I knew what USPS stands for... wink
I was just wondering if he checked the UPS or FedEX option.

My USPS mail comes at noon, so I doubt if they are coming back 2day. pout

Mine shipped Friday and arrived today.

Same price as retail (sale price at Borders). $30 after I got my 1.50 back.

It's in d minor, which I believe, is the saddest of all keys.
