I don't know where else to reach out but I got the DM Core Pocket when I ordered the Player Core Pocket through the paizo website. I submitted a ticket with pictures and I never got a response. It's been 4 weeks and I don't know what to do at this point.</p>Hi, I was shipped the wrong books in my order 4 weeks ago and opened up a ticket with Paizo that hasn't had a response since then.

I'm not sure exactly when this started happening, I think the first place I spotted it was in <i>Highhelm</i>, but it could have been going on earlier than that.</p>
<p>Does this mean Paizo isn't tagging their PDFs anymore? They're still plenty readable without it, but it was a helpful feature that could sometimes circumvent odd layout issues that trip up my screen reader, and also meant that scrolling past the abridged table of contents, along with my watermark, on every page was a non-issue.</p>I've been noticing on the last few PDFs I've purchased that none of them have been tagged or marked to make them more screen reader-friendly.

<p>The first couple of ordered I received contained minis in them. They were a random, single mini. More recent orders do not have them.</p>This is not a complaint. I'm just asking for understanding. What happened to the random minis that were tossed in on my first couple orders?

<p>It would seem PF found some way to get around not including character creation in their product just checking to see if it can then be used, if referenced properly as the OGL indicates.</p>The pathfinder V1 SRD has a section about Character Advancement.

We're currently digging out from a few issues: </p>
<p>1.) Tracking numbers are broken again, sending invalid numbers to customers. Our tech team is investigating how this happened and determining a fix for it. We don't have an easy way to get tracking numbers out to people, but we definitely owe everyone a response to it. This has generated a large number of tickets, and our best advice now is to wait a few weeks for your order to arrive (longer for international orders).</p>
<p>2.) Many users are reporting issues with their Pathfinder Society and Starfinder Society PDFs not showing up in their downloads. The tech team is investigating the source of this as well. </p>
<p>3.) We have many requests to swap out the softcover Seven Dooms for Sandpoint for the hardcover version. That's currently a priority so we can get those products shipped out with the rest of the March releases.</p>
<p>4.) We are down a customer service agent, and that will be filled from a transfer inside the company. </p>
<p>We are asking some employees to jump into the current ticket queue to help us get caught up (and that includes me), but the ticket queue likely won't go down much until issues 1 and 2 are fixed. We are working through the issues as quickly as we can.</p>
<p><b>Reminder:</b> Please do not post your issues to this thread. If you need to create a ticket, please do so at the <a href="https://support.paizo.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Customer Service Portal.</a></p>

<p>A few months ago, Paizo started using the IOSS system and including VAT in the price of the orders (mine are mostly subscription orders). If I understand correctly, this process is supposed to allow the customers to pay the VAT along with the order instead of having to pay it later when the goods enter the EU (from <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/ioss_en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">this web page</a>).</p>
<p>It's actually much more interesting than that for the customers, since most customs add special/administrative taxes when you pay the VAT later. So, it's not just a quality of life improvement allowing you to pay only once, it's also about having to pay less... much less in most cases, since the difference can be quite significant (e.g., my last subscription order, for Book of the Dead + Punks in a Powderkeg has books for $59.98, plus $35.66 shipping and $5.74 for the VAT paid to Paizo... and the customs demand that I pay €34.44 more in additional taxes!).</p>
<p>Even since Paizo started using the IOSS system, each time I get a package, BPost (Belgium Post) demands that I pay additional taxes, as if the IOSS system was not used at all. I contacted BPost but they said they couldn't do anything about it since "the IOSS webshop" - that is, Paizo - "did not provide all the information required".</p>
<p>Do other Belgian customers have the same problem? Any idea what needs to change to solve this problem?
