The replacements will cover about half - I have another order that should get all the rest and then some in stock.
That is so awesome that one print run isn't enough to handle demand.

Yeah, I think I recall telling Jeremy something along those lines... :P
Is the non-mint version still on backorder? Or is there any other reason why it'd shipped seperately from the other book (Deep Magic) in my cart?Both books in your cart are nearly 7 pounds each. Its cheaper for shipping to your address to ship them in two separate boxes than to ship them together.
thanks

Thanks. Maybe I'll wait for Amazon after all. *sigh*

Stuff.
Thank you for being awesome and delivering awesome materials to us.
It´s highly appreciated.
I'm looking forward to this a lot, and have no concerns about the timeframe ... stuff happens.

And besides ... mythic ... now I'm doubly glad I'm backing the Legendary Kickstarter!
Jeremy, just wanted to let you know, I am an Ultimate Psionics Kickstarter backer and I still haven't received my book. I am a reasonable and patient man, so no worries, this is just an FYI.Stupid question Gambit... did you back at a sufficiently high level that you're getting the limited edition hardcover? If so, that doesn't exist yet. They're still finishing up the Psionic Bestiary. Once PB is complete, it can get compiled into UP and the print order for the limited edition gets issued.
If not, I'm sorry but I can't help you.
No, I backed at the $100 color hardcover level.
Gambit - send me a message or email with your Kickstarter info (username and/or email address used for Kickstarter) and I'll be happy to look it up. :)

So apparently it wasn't a stupid question, it was a stupid response

Uh. Now I'm all ashamed. I try so hard to not be stupid.
^that's what ya get man
Received book yesterday.
So, as it indicates the books are back-ordered, I’m assuming more are on the way? Any ETA?
I don't have an older order, btw, I would be a new buyer.
I was curious if anyone's purchased one of the non-mint books. I'm seriously considering doing it, just to get a copy a bit sooner, and possibly try to get some money into DSP and Paizo's hands for all the work Jeremy has been putting into this. I'm fine with a couple dings on the cover or a couple light scrapes on the back, but might be a bit more hesitant to acquire something with severely-smashed corners or binding that's on the verge of falling apart. What's the break point (generally speaking) between "We're willing to sell this to someone" and "Nope, this one's a loss"?
My (two) non-mint copies just arrived.
There is very, very, very minimal damage to my copies. There's nothing in the way of scratches or edge dings. What I've got is extremely light spine-crush. What I mean is, if you were to take a book and look at the spine (as if it were on the bookshelf), the top and the bottom of the spine is always "weak". You could try to fold it down (or up from the bottom one) to meet the pages inside. This is because the pages aren't quite as big as the cover. Well, imagine a player did that gently, once.
A tiny, light crease. Seriously, this looks like a book that has been used a couple sessions. That's it.
Bottom line: if I had been shipped these as mint, I would NEVER have noticed and certainly never have complained.
I'd take a picture and post it somewhere but honestly, mine are excellent.

I just wanted to add, these two non-mint copies are in addition to the limited edition one I'll eventually get from the original Kickstarter. I bought these as backups and gifts... and I'm impatient... and they were at a great price.
When did you place your order, Anguish?
Complicated and the answer is likely useless to you. I ordered within hours of the non-mint books becoming available, but I put them in my sidecart to ship with my April AP subscription. That shipped on the 17th. That said, I'm in Canada, so 7 calendar days is the minimum shipping time for me, ever.
Received book yesterday.
Great to hear!

Well after a few hiccups, my book arrived yesterday. It's far more impressive than I expected. Thanks Jeremy!
According to the printer, replacements should be arriving at Paizo in the next few days.It's been three days; has Paizo gotten them in yet?
I'm checking in with the printer for tracking information.

Liz sent me pictures of a few where the spine is bent at about a 30 degree angle, but as she said, if they aren't usable, they don't get sold.
Jeremy, any idea in regards to my question?

You are referring about Jeremy checking on the tracking info? Yes, saw that. So I take it that Jeremy’s answer not only covers replacements, but if you just want to purchase one?
I don’t need a replacement, but I would like to purchase a new copy.
Any word on the herolab stuff?

Thing have been kind of slow on it, but I think there will be a bet of most of the Race and basic Class information sometime in the next week or so. There are a couple of things doing a review on, but it's progressing. :)
OK, maybe wrong thread...
Is there a point cost listed anywhere for the half-giant and the other psionic races?

I get it now. The replacements are replacing stock so that Paizo can sell them.

Ive been wondering if we will see a custom race chapter somewhere listing psionic abilities and traits with their rbp value so I can make my own psionic monsters using the rules in the ARG. Is this what your asking as well?

The ARG came out after most of Ultimate Psionics was written. A compilation product/PfRPG update of the 3.5 Races of the Mind series might be a good place to add in race builder point values.
Assuming Jeremy or Andreas ever get free time after completing the impossibly long list of psionics-related books they have now, along with Path of War and Magic of Incarna.

Pretty much, though I think Kvantum has a good point.
Sigh...
Of course, I will be getting both Path of War and Magic of Incarna...or whatever they're calling it now.

Ditto.
Kvantum has it right - the only races that used the ARG rules were the Forgeborn and the Noral/Dreamscarred. The races in Psionics Unleashed were developed more than a year before the Advanced Race Guide was released, so their racial abilities did not have RP values when created.
It's something we're considering doing as either a Psionics Augmented product or something else, it's just very low on the priority list right now unless someone feels like doing it as a freelance assignment. :)
I just received my "non-mint" copy of UP; I can't find a SINGLE FLAW with the book! This thing is in utterly pristine condition! I wanted to thank Paizo for their great, speedy shipping on this, and thank Jeremy and all in DSP who worked on this book... I can't WAIT to use it!
I'm really glad that worked out for you. I gifted one of mine on Friday, hoping to spread the infection. <Grin>
@Jeremy I wish I had the understanding it took to do it as a freelance assignment. I've got the time and the desire, but don't think it would come out appropriately balanced lol
Jeremy, I worked out (what I think is fair) the RP values for the Half-Giant (due to wanting to have some variants in the game I'm GM'ing) a few weeks back and can PM you what I've calculated if you want?
Sure, that'd be great!
Just got my scratch and dent copy of UP.
It honestly has a little ding on the top back corner of the book on the spine, as if it was dropped once or something.
Very happy. Now I have something to look at while at work. (not that I don't have the pdf on my smartphone, but still, I like having a book in my hand)
Thanks guys. I'll let you know, this is like the first 3rd party anything I've ever really bought, besides an occasional adventure from Half Price Books. Thanks again!

Akashic Mysteries. First release featuring the Vizier class should be coming out in the very near future, followed by the Guru, then the Daevic (I've switched the release order on those because the Daevic needs more love), then an archetypes and PrC release, and then the final compiled product which will include all of the previous items plus 5 Akashic races, additional feat and alternate racial trait support for core and UP races, additional spells designed to interact with the subsystem, magic items, and a limited Bestiary for GMs to use creatures that are heavily talked about in the other materials, like the daeva.
Any word on these replacements? I thought they were suppose to have been to paizo by now.
Hooray, my hardcover copy just shipped!

Sorry, I was waiting for confirmation and then Tuesday and Wednesday were extremely hectic.
The replacements arrived and a bunch of backorders are shipping. I coordinated with Liz to find out how many additional are needed beyond the replacements so I can get more sent.
Hooray, my hardcover copy just shipped!
If you don't mind my asking, when did you order?
I'm cautiously optimistic that mine may ship out of this batch as well.
