Will the Beta be on sale at GenCon UK? I'll get it anyway, just curious.

Looks like I am picking up two copies at GenCon. One for me and one for a friend whom can not make the trip. Now I just need to line up everyone at paizo there and have them sign both books...
I too am interested as too whether psionics will be mentioned? May not be a loved aspect of D&D but I think its a cool one and worth covering. Love the way the classes haev been beefed up by the way. Very cool.

In which way could I get copies sooner... at Gen Con, or by ordering?
If they do ever do a psionics book, they could actually be able to do something WotC never would do - combine the OGC Psionics stuff from the Malhavoc books with the Psionics stuff that's in the SRD.
(Along with Paizo's own added goodness, of course.)
I've not checked the OGL licence in the psionics books, but if its like Malhavoc's usual approach to open game content they'll have been as vague as possible about what is open and kept as much closed as they feel they can get away with.

We can't say for sure at this time. I *suspect* we'll be able to start shipping shortly before Gen Con, but you may not receive it before the show.
Vic, any news about the new deal with shipping to Europe?

Dreamscarred Press has used some Malhavoc psionic stuff, id give examples but i think they got special permission for some things...
So, I wanted to see how much it would cost to buy the pdf edition, and have it printed and bound in the uk, saving on shipping I figured would make up the printing costs, and then I have a hard copy for easy reading, and a pdf to keep at work and for reference.....
First quote, Staples, 400pages, in full colour, at 31p per page, £124, + £3 to bind it, oh, minus a £5 discount for being over £100.
So, £122, or at current exchange rates, $242.54....I am assuming shipping will cost less than that.... :D

Try printing it in Black and White. It's only a Beta, after all.

If I remember rightly, 5p per page would be £20 + £3 to bind (wire binding, not thermal so not as good), the print edition prim paizo, will be less than £18 shipped......
I am sure I could get the printing/binding done cheaper at a local Univeristy, but I thought it may amuse people to see just how much this *can* cost.
Not going to Gen Con. But I do have this on pre-order. How soon before the convention are you shipping these? Would I have my copy around the time the convention starts? Sort of an idea where I can pretend I have the money to go to gaming's big dance and see those who are preserving D&D as well as those who are basically attempting to bury it.
I'm sorry if this has been asked and replied to already.. didn't read all 88 posts...
If someone is to pre-order the soft cover Beta book when will it be shipped? Will it be shipped to arrive on the 14th or will it be shipped on the 14th?
Thanks
JC
PS: Oh I saw on another post they stated a day or two before.. so 12th or 13th.. Probably get it at a FLGS faster.
