My LGS is willing to exchange it to me but says the distributor here in Quebec, Canada, is not aware of a replacement program. Have you already informed the distributors yet?
I just bought a Core rulebook at my local gaming store 2 days ago. It wasn't in wrap anymore. The binding was unglued from the cover when I opened it first time. I didn't see this when I bought it How do I get a replacement book please.
