That's honestly very frustrating. Doubly so when people who ordered through local stores will have their books on time (or before release in some cases...).
I was looking forward to getting my books all week. Hopefully they will at least be here before my group has our first session scheduled.
Agreed. In a launch this big there are definitely some logistics to consider and when using a third party (like Amazon) you are ultimately at their mercy. According to someone on twitter, they ordered their books directly from Amazon (at a discount as I found out this morning (nice Amazon, really?)) and received their books yesterday.
I don't fault Paizo for this, I fault Amazon for dropping the ball. You would think that a distribution company like that would have much better logistics. Heck, there's a warehouse in Dallas, TX which could have had my books to me in 3 days, but now I'm content with the PDF.
