Bit lost on what is coming up next

[Haldir]

Hey guys

Not sure where to ask this but figured this was a good place as any, but with the new Chronicles stuff coming up & the delays, just curious but is the next items to come out for each of my 3 subscriptions?

PF sub.

I know Pathfinder #7 (but when) & then the PG to Korvosa is free, for subscribers? I can't remember.

PF Ch sub.

The map folio (I see it says Feb, but I recall March being the actual date) & ??(anything?)

GM sub.
The next GM module? I'm assuming J3, but will it release this month?

Anything else I missed?

Thanks & sorry for the confusion, more or less just cautious of when my cc will take the hit. Funds are a bit tight right now.

Haldir:

In the next seven days or so, we expect to get the Map Folio, Northwest of Earth (Planet Stories novel) and Crucible of Chaos (GameMastery module), along with Key Largo (our next board game).

During the last week of the February, we expect to get Pathfinder #7, the Pathfinder PG, the Korvosa book, and the Harrow deck. There is an off chance that we will get the Adventure Gear 2 items cards and the Critical Fumble deck during that last week, but my guess is that they will slip into the first week or two of March.

And, yes, you get one copy of the printed edition of the Pathfinder Player's Guide free with your subscription.

thanks for the info Lisa

nice to know about the crit fumb deck as well (something I've been looking forward too)

Assuming all that comes as you say (cross fingers!), and since I have all 4 subscriptions, I'm an international (Canada) and my shipping option is set to wait for PF, then my next package will include:

PF#7
PG CotCT
RotR Map Folio
Guide to Korvosa
Harrow Deck
Crucible of Chaos
Northwest of Earth

I've done a little simulation with my shopping cart, and it seems there would be one too many things in that package for me to get the cheap rate of $6.86 . With all those, I get a $22 to $23 shipping charge.

I'd just like to know if there are possibilities to avoid that big shipping charge:
- Push one (or more if needed) of the items to my next shipment (the next month) so the weight limit to Bound Printed Matter International is met?
- Divide the package in two, so I pay $6.86 twice ($13.72) instead of $23?

Thanks :)

PS: And since I know you are working on new shipping options for subscriptions, how about a "Ship me what you got so far" button. In my case, since everything is set to ship with PF, I get to wait on 3 items for an extra week or more, and the PF will likely get many other items to ship with it anyway. With that option, I could tell you to ship those 3 the day after they become available, and I would still get my usual shipment when PF arrives along with all the rest.

I think I'm probably gonna be in the same boat here. An option to ship in 2 parts would be a really good idea. I know that my last Sub Order hit the $23 mark (2x PF, 2x GMM, 2x PS) and if I could split it into 2 $7 orders then I would be happier (not that $23 is too much to ship to Australia, but any saving is good saving).

I'm not sure if this would work, but you could change your "Combined Shipping Options" setting to ship with GM Modules. That way you get the Map Folio, Crucible of Chaos and Planet Stories now. Then reset your options after they ship.

[Djoc]

I've considered that option too, but I would need to be sure the shipment would include the 3 items. While I'm willing to pay 6.86 S/H for a single PF (and that explains the option I took), it seems a high price for a single Module... If the Module was to arrive one week and the rest is delayed a week later or more, it'll be a bad move.

That, and the fact other people still have problems when modifying their shipping option, is making me hesitate to do the move and come back to my original setting inside a couple weeks...

Djoc,

Several of those items still had estimated weights in our system, and our estimated total was just over 4 pounds—our carrier's weight limit for international Bound Printed Matter. We've now got production samples in hand for all of them, so I've updated our data. The combined weight is in fact under 4 pounds, so it will qualify for Bound Printed Matter worldwide.

I should also mention that we're working on significant additions to our shipping and subscription code, and that includes making our system smart enough to split orders into multiple packages when doing so would lower the shipping cost.

[Djoc]

The weight and shipping guru has spoken!

Thanks a lot Vic for looking into this and answering my concerns!

100% satisfied customer here!

The extra 50% satisfaction (for a 150% total) will come when all that will arrive at my home. I'll feel like it's my birthday early this year, with so much goodness in only one box! I cross my fingers so all that will arrive at your warehouse as Lisa said!
