Disturbing e-mail from amazon.co.uk

Hi Mason,

Thanks for that.

It was what i was thinking!
I've noticed the books i get through Amazon uk always arrive before the expected delivery date and i am confident this will again be the case.

I'm afraid I don't share the optimism with Amazon, they don't seem to be anywhere near as good lately.

maybe i'm just lucky.

i pre-ordered both the Sam Connor book and the full tilt one with Amazon.uk, and there was little if any delay.

Been sitting here all smug reading folks Amazon emails but I've now received one myself. :-(

Normally I'd give them a chance as until recently I hadn't had any problems with them but I'm still waiting on the following book...

yeah I got the same email so I ordered from conjelco, the delivery charges to the UK seem to be very high though.

They are high, but given the exchange rate, it still works out ok compared to waiting and buying from a uk shop.

Conjelco. I got The Mathematics of Poker from them when it was released. Shipping costs quite a bit though.

I ordered mine from www.highstakes.co.uk they seem to be good for these more specialist books. They are based in London so if you live there you might be able to pick one up as sson as they get stock.

I can recommend highstakes.co.uk as well - amazon.co.uk have been pretty bad lately for me especially for poker books - books suddenly out of stock, not available etc. Highstakes have bailed me out when amazon let me down.

If anyone in the UK is willing to wait until the end of the month (when highstakes say they will have PNL) you can probably save a bit on the shipping cf. ordering from the US .

I am just a satisfied customer by the way, I have no affiliation with any booksellers!
