Oh my poor chat server that day...I think I heard it die in a pyroclastic explosion all the way in Bend.

I kept a log from that day in chat.

Our first awareness of what Paizo was doing came at 18/03/2008 21:52:19 in the log.

Pardon the PG-13 language throughout...

Yes that was a great day to experience in the chat room!

Is Lisa not down there helping out yet ;-)

Just got the book today - being my birthday as well that was perfect timing!!

Thank you SilverHair

Still waiting for my book to show up, but here is a couple of photos I just found online of an unboxing :

It looks great and are really looking forward to seeing IRL.

I agree with JaceDK here, (I am also from Denmark).
The package control thing that handles the VAT stuff here is really getting good and picking up every single package i have gotten from paizo from like last christmas. And just about every parcel has this large fee, 26 bucks on each package, so I would also really really appreciate that I just received one big , and slightly more package in regards to p&p , then several small ones with several fees of 26 bucks as a result.
My last order from paizo that left just a week ago from the them,were packed into 3 packages in total, and so will likely cost me at least 52 extra dollars in import compared to one package. So if the p&p were less that 52 dollars more it would have saved some money here...

long email, but just trying to explain why several packages is not always a good solution.

To keep my collection complete I had to order this :-) Since this is a one in a decade product I figured I could spend the money on it.

I am really looking forward to seeing how it look in real life!

Though, I imagine that the shipping container route, while very likely a plausible option, would be really slow. You'd be better off ordering through Amazon,I imagine.

It would probably be a bit slower, although the current speed is variable. With Amazon, I don't get the PDF and I don't get the pleasure of supporting Paizo directly. Those two reasons are why I subscribe. The discount I get is what makes me able to subscribe in that it brings the cost down to a swallowable increase above buying from Amazon.

I'd swap an increase in shipping time to avoid having to pay £8 to the post office for the pleasure of paying £1 in duty on a subscription box that happens to contain enough non-book items to attract the eye of customs and excise.

I agree to this and to several posts here! The postal service expenses for handling these packages inDenmark are really annoying....

Cosmo, I just got my new card and have updated the information accordingly! So things should be ok now :-)

Thanks for your help!

Thank you, and I will!!

Hi, just wanted to say I have not received the mentioned package yet, but just got the june package which was shipped from you about a month later.

Hi,
my credit card is about to expire and a new one has been ordered.... can we hold back my coming July shipment off until I have some new card info - would rather not loose my Charter title and benefits regarding the upcoming RotR PDF :-(

Cheers,
Marc

Hehe thanks for that correction ;-)

I will let you know, thanks again

Hi,
I have not yet received order 2029540 here in Denmark.

Could you check into that please?

Thanks :-)

They will fit swell in the large Bestiary Box. This product is technically an extension of that one, which has all the bases anyway. Of course, you could skip that product, buy bases separately (once we figure out the costs), and keep them in a shoebox, as you suggest. :)

This set will feature lots of pawns that are specific to Rise of the Runelords, but it won't duplicate pawns from the Bestiary Box, so if you're going to want to maximize your pawn usage, you'll still want the Bestiary Box.

Thanks to both of you - I now preordered the Bestiary box as well :-)

No box? I was really hoping for a cool little box to store these :-/
A shoe box must do then

Goblinman?

Just be glad you don't live in Denmark...I'd have been hit for 25% of the value of the parcel + about £20 in clearance fee.

Waiting for my package here in Denmark as well.... this close to Christmas everything seems to be hit by VAT :-/

More or less how I feel...

This... actually kind of disappoints me. I'm not a huge pirate fan, so a pirate-themed AP leaves me a little flat. Not saying it will be bad or anything; given Paizo's overall AP quality, it'll probably wind up being quite good. But much like Legacy of Fire wasn't my thing, this isn't really my thing either. Kudos to all the pirate fans, though. =)

Got my book yesterday - thanks!!! A friends name is on it already....

On an unrelated topic - I find it extremely weird that I never see any other Charter Superscribers on here....

There are at least a few of us left. I am sure there are others like me that lurk more than talk.

I agree ;-)

You are right, it did.
I just looked at this:
Paizo Order # 1571857, submitted December 10, 2010 at 01:07 AM (Europe/Copenhagen).

This order contains the following items:
   1 x Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Bestiary 2 (OGL) Hardcover (preorder) @ 33.99 = $33.99
   1 x Pathfinder Adventure Path #40: Vaults of Madness (Serpent's Skull 4 of 6) (PFRPG) (preorder) @ 13.99 = $13.99
   1 x Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Book of the Damned -- Volume 2: Lords of Chaos (PFRPG) Print Edition (preorder) @ 16.99 = $16.99
   1 x Pathfinder Module: The Godsmouth Heresy (PFRPG) Print Edition (preorder) @ 11.89 = $11.89

Which I took as an indication that it would be shipped in one box.
But thanks!

I got the email last week as well, but today I got my shipments email and it was missing Serpent Skull #4? :-(

Has anyone tried the pdf on an iphone/handheld yet? I'd like to get the pdf but I'm affraid it won't resize on my iphone and I'd have to read with my magnifying glass.

I have the file on my Iphone, old 3Gs model, and it is readable on it, but it is a bit small. But much easier to read than the normal Paizo books as the format on the pages is single column. For your information I have been reading it using GoodReader...

+1 from here as well

Thank you :-)

Good notes coming in at the 3.5 sanctuary's pathfinder subforum:
http://forum.35privatesanctuary.com/viewforum.php?f=15&sid=71c6fad13c3b 4d3594e7c1c3e5a81bba

I want live streaming of all events and games!!!

Nice to know and here in the UK smaller shipments with cheaper totals definitely attract less attention.

Great service always.

The same here in Denmark but around certain holidays they assign toll and vat to every single package.

If you really think that the single package option is a better choice, you can contact customer service immediately after you get the "we're about to ship your subscription" e-mail, and tell them that you'd rather have the more expensive shipping method. (Note that in most cases you've only got a day or two to do this, though!)

Thank you very much! Great service.

International shipments many times get split up into multiple shipments to save postage for y'all. Yes, it is CHEAPER to ship multiple packages. Yes, that makes no sense, but that is the way it is. In any case, our computer system automatically splits them into the best number of packages. As each package ships, you get your PDFs. With the many thousands of packages going out, it is not unthinkable that your shipments could be two to three days apart.

-Lisa

yes, thank you for saving me some money ón your end - bit actually I would really really like all my paizo stuff to ship in one package. The handling fee from the toll administration here on each package is much more than i imagine i save on shopping.

Order #1426835

Three items shown as shipping and 3 as pending..but I had it set to post with my AP volume so why isn't my AP volume shipping.Is this to do with the weight of the GMG?

Cos????????

I have something similar, 2 items seems to have shipped ( got the PDFs), the last three is pending. On my subscription page it is listed as one package, so a bit odd as well.

Any news on the Paizo Iphone apps yet? Or any chance you will show them off at PaizoCon?

Thanks!

This is going to be good!

Know Direction episode 10 is live![/url]

And a great show indeed - so much information about the upcoming core rulebook!!

That would be King Castruccio Irovetti, lord of Pitax.

Wow, something must have happened to the bard that was described this way in the "Guide to the River Kingdoms":

Quote:

"A small, slight man who walks with a pronounced limp, Lord Irovetti is not physically intimidating or particularly handsome."

The Irovetti on the cover looks like King Conan or Kull or something and VERY intimidating. I like THIS Irovetti more than his alter ego in the guide.

;)

:-) LOL

Hi Cosmo,
thank you, yes I saw your post there, but it really does not answer my question regarding splitting a single order into two packages. See my mid-June order for instance.
I am not referring to the two shipments in July but have "a problem" on a more general level when the packages gets to big and are split into smaller shipments to save on shipping. It may cost me way more at the other end than what is saved in direct shipping costs.
Hope that explains it a bit better :-)

Episode 10.... when will it air? Started looking for it last week.
I can only recommend that podcast, great show.

Hi,
I just want to make sure that order #1202726 is going to be automatically deleted so I dont get two copies of the first two books in the new Pathfinder Fiction subscription...

One another note, albeit there is a lot of talk about the strange shipping in June and July, but as I have written about a number of times the handling fee for adding VAT and Toll here in Denmark is close to 30 US$ PER package so I would in most cases really like my stuff to ship in just one package no matter the amount of books . Could that perhaps be added as an option somewhere on the subscription page so one could see how much more expensive one large package is versus 2 smaller ones in shipping costs? That would be highly appreciated!!

Thanks :-)

This is going to be a hot, long summer for overseas subscribers :)

Indeed!!

Could someone at Paizo give us any indication, and perhaps prices is possible, if we would can get the entire July shipment to ship in one package to avoid having to pay twice for administrative charges by the VAT office (~30$ for each package in Denmark)?

Also, will our individually ordered Pathfinder fiction book order be automatically overwritten by the subscription copies? I ordered before the subscription was available but added a subscription to that line as well..... but one copy will be sufficient :-)

Thanks!

Just got my April package here in Denmark.
Shipped 22nd April - arrived 01.May

Fastest delivery I have ever experienced from Paizo!!

By just very quickly looking through the pdf and reading here and there this looks to be an amazing product!!!!

I would just like to add that my latest order from Paizo also had bend corners. Not that it requires replacements but just mention my concern of the present shipping packages (sturdy white envelopes)...

Working on it. This is our first iPhone app, so everything is taking longer than we thought it would. Couple that with wanting to make sure that they are the best.... But soon. Soon.

-Lisa

At a recent conference, Erik Mona mentioned that there were 3 apps being developed as far as I remember... are they going to be released together?

(link. http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/pathfinder/general/pen PaperGamingInThe21stCentury2009GamesUKeynoteErikMona&page=1#34)

Great talks, all of them. Thank you for posting these!

I am in Copenhagen as well and are interested in hearing more :-)

once..just once couldn't you guys send the UK/European subscribers their copies out in the early parts of the dispatch...please?

I am in Europe (Denmark), and got my email with links late last night local time.
