I got them
 
Hi Everyone:

I've been doing binding inspections earlier (on Wednesday) and brought home a couple of copies of each of the two new books. Later today (Thursday) we should be getting the first deliveries to our office of each title. This means that on Friday the 20th, as announced, we will be shipping out the first books.

This includes those of you who ordered books directly from us or ConJelCo. I can't say for sure that they all will be shipped on Friday, but a good number will be going out.

Best wishes,
Mason

Mason, you are located in Henderson and have the books there? Is there a way to get a book Thursday or Friday in Las Vegas or Henderson somehow?

I think Mason usually takes a box or two over to the Gambler's Book Shop in LV pretty quickly after receiving them.

Thanks Mason, looking forward to them. I'm between addresses right now so haven't ordered my copies yet but look forward to doing so soon.

Thanks for the update Mason. I'm also curious if you'll be dropping any off at local shops in Vegas.....

Re: I got them
 
Can I come pick it up in your house or office, Mason? I'll still pay retail plus whatever shipping cost it would have cost.

You guys remember that female astronaut who drove across the country, and wore an adult diaper while driving so she wouldn't have stop along the way to pee?

At first we all thought she was crazy, but now I don't know. I mean, I'm fairly sure I could make it from Boston to the Gambler's Book Shop by noon tomorrow if I just had a box of Depends...

Later today or later this week? I'm visiting Vegas this week... could take a cab to the GBS. Just turned in the rental car an hour ago - drove through Henderson this morning.

Argh.

thanks mike, anybody who hasn't ordered mike from prof poker will give you the amazon sale price for both books..awesome deal

Re: I got them
 
*bragging* I was just the very first consumer on planet earth to receive a copy of both PNHL and SitNGo Strategy. Mike from professionalpoker.com has a store in Henderson NV and has both books and sells them for a 25% discount off the cover price.

Excellent Mike. I canceled my Amazon order and will order from you instead. Don't let me down now :-)

Re: I got them
 
Another good thing about ordering though Professional Poker is that they have several books in B-Stock condition and can be bought for even deeper discounts and usaully you can't why 1 book is B-stock vs another book being A-Stock.

Re: I got them
 
I almost did the same, but regular shipping looks like it could take awhile (the site said 4 to 30 days because they use something called media mail!!), depending on distance from Vegas! Since I'm in the northeast, I might have to wait a very long time and priority mail was a little expensive. So, for this time around, I will wait for Amazon.

However, if it turns out that others get their books quickly using the sloooow shipping method, than maybe I will make my next order through professionalpoker.com.

Too bad, because I was so ready to order. :-(

The media mail average time in transit for a cross country trip is 12 days. I state the wide range to be honest about the possibility of a slow delivery.

Here are my actual stats for the last month from my postage printing provider

Media Mail Average 6.6 days Min 1 days Max 27 days

Mason,

I was in Gambler's Book Store and Gambler's General Store on Friday and neither had either of the books. The book store said you wouldn't give them the book until next week so that Conjelco could sell the book first. Understandable, but I wish I would have had the opportunity to buy them while I was in town.

Seeing all the members here who are waiting for a copy, in my opinion this is not understandable at all, but down right annoying.

First off, both new titles were delivered to Gambler's Book Shop (aka Club) at approximately 3:00 pm on Friday. I know for sure this was the case because I delivered them myself. Gambler's General Store got the books about 15 minutes later when I dropped them off there as well.

I also just spoke to Howard Schwarz of Gambler's Book Club and he said that he has no idea where

came from and that they would never make a statement like this.

Both these stores are given top priority by us and they each got books as soon as it was physically possible to get them the books.

I've always found media rate to be a lot faster than they say. Hoping it's the case here, cause I can't wait.

I believe you are speaking the truth. It would be silly not to give other sellers the book so that conjelco could sell it first. The most logical thing to do is to distribute the books as fast as possible to all the major sellers.

I still haven't gotten an e-mail from ConGelCo that mine was even shipped.

I obviously made a poor sourcing choice.

Thanks. I'll have to check that when I finish reading Harry Potter.

Um, I mean 'When I get home from work.' I'll check that link just as soon as I get home from work...

Hello Mason,

Do you have any idea when Amazon or Barnes & Noble type sites would start shipping? I'm just curious because I pre-ordered from B&N. Thanks.
