Indisputable evidence, or so they claim...

It's possible you'll see books from amazon.com shipping before the first week in July, but my bet is that they'll begin hitting people's mailboxes shortly after the 4th of July weekend.
Here's to hoping my copy arrives before July 4th weekend (should be direct
from Chaosium). 3 day weekend coupled with my mother-in-law in town to
help distract the kids might equal more reading time

But they'll ship to FLGS distributors first, right? So that those of us who are supporting our FLGS, but have been bugging them for several YEARS will not be penalized for buying locally...

Right?...

Oh bugger.

I have no official idea, but I would imagine it'll be done almost simultaneously.

I've been at publishers when product needed to go to distributors and amazon.com, and it's often accomplished at the same time... checking boxes for condition of books, throwing a bunch of shipping labels onto them and calling a shipper like UPS to come and get them.

So my unofficial guess is that distributors and Amazon.com will get their books almost the same time... how long it takes them to get them into their own distribution system and out the door is variable.

Mine is still showing Pre-Order Pending. My hope is that it will arrive by Saturday. I know, I'm an optimist.

Going to get on phone and stop bugging my local game store. Perhaps threaten to summon a shoggoth during their next war hammer tournament if they don't order me a copy.

FRPgames has it on their home page as a recent release that is in stock. Looks like it's making its way out to the game shops.
