publication delay of 568 days isn't a delay!

Jun 11, 2012 17:42

The 1930s sourcebook I pre-ordered on 17 August 2011 that has had continual delays since then has in the past week been put off for another 568 days.

That's not a delay that's beyond a joke.  I've just emailed www.bookdepository.co.uk asking to cancel the order for a refund.  I can wait 5-9 months for a book I really want but NOT another 568 days.

You did the right thing. They keep your money in their account and earn the interest.

They've had it 10 months already, not giving them another year and a half!

Who knows. The 1920s book that was due to be published in November 2011 (same as this book) was eventually published but it's hard to find any online seller that got copies.

18 months seems like it hasn't been put together yet, so I can only imagine it hasn't been written.
