Well, my hurry on the first order is that the book has been released, and
was released about 7 weeks ago; the seller claims it should arrive within
2-4 weeks, which means _my_ individual order is 3-5 weeks late. I know
others have gotten their copy; this leads me to think that something has
gone wrong with _my_ order, and before I call the seller up to ask what's
wrong, it seemed reasonable to try to find out if _I'm_ the only one with
this problem, or if it's a problem everyone else is having.
Since I was already asking about the one book, it seemed like a good time to
ask about the other, which--as I stated in my email--I know is NOT late;
it's merely eagerly expected. Based on what is on the writers'/publisher's
website, mid-March is about the earliest it could have arrived; I posted
about this in the hopes that those who lived closest to the mailing point
might already have gotten their books, which would have meant that I, here
in the US, was within a week or two of receiving my copy. I am not surprised
or upset to discover that no one else has gotten their copy; I am merely
better informed, having asked and been answered.
I realize that this could be a touchy subject for you, but I think you're
misinterpreting eager expectation as anger, which is no way involved--not
even on the overdue book, and certainly not in this post. My original post
was a request for information; not a complaint.
