Still No Pathfinder #24 in Birmingham, UK

Dear Dread Lord of Golarion,
As of today, my Flagship local games-store still had not received delivery of Pathfinder #24.
I am informed that there is a possibility that it may finally be on the shelves (along with the Cheliax book) later this week.
I do not purchase sufficient products, given the cost of international postage, for it to be worth my while buying direct from Paizo; however the disregard for speedy delivery of Paizo products to stores in the UK by the conventional distribution/stores method (and occasional crinkled corners) is something I find very frustrating.
I am likely to take a break from adventure path purchase for the duration of Council of Thieves whilst I review whether the aggravation of knowing the shop shelf dates are being repeatedly held up by a supply chain that apparently cares little for the Paizo RPG customers is worth enduring.

Sorry about this. :(

What do you mean? Of course it's worth buying direct from Paizo - Every subscription comes with a free forum tag!

And is it possible that the issue is with the shop's supplier? My FLGS has been receiving all the books in good time as far as I'm aware.

All I know is that when I went into Wayland's Forge, this afternoon, they *still* had not had Pathfinder #24 in or the Cheliax book. I was advised to try again, later in the week, after they have had this week's delivery.

Pathfinder #24 finally sighted (and purchased).
I am holding off for now on any intention of purchase of the Council of Thieves path. :-?
