Re: cf8 book by Ben Forta - release date?
Just ordered it. Ships later than I had hoped but maybe it's an estimate and will ship sooner. *Shipping estimate for these items: * November 19, 2007 *Delivery estimate: * November 23, 2007 - November 27, 2007 Ben Forta wrote: > Apparently Amazon received a very small initial shipment (just a couple of > hundred books).

Apparently Amazon received a very small initial shipment (just a couple of hundred books). But a bigger shipment is already on the way to Amazon and they should have it early next week, which means they should be shipping it out by the end of next week.

RE: cf8 book by Ben Forta - release date?
Now selling copies on EBAY - $250 a copy if you want em now! just kidding of course - but still wanting to get a copy. Has anyone found a better means than waiting on Amazon or has there been a more accurate date of "on the shelves" release? Was hoping to have it last week but still not getting any dealers who say they can get it before mid month October or later.

Re: cf8 book by Ben Forta - release date?
Sorry I should have mentioned that in the initial post. I got the same results which was why I was looking locally and than asked here. The local stores had the date around Oct 15th so the only thing I can gather so far is that they ship today from Publisher but warehouses wont have it ready to ship til Oct? Local Barnes and Nobles said they could preorder it and have it by Oct and that since it was classified a text book - it wasnt going to be a routinely stocked item. That may have been BS though trying to get me to pre-order cuase I know I have seen former editions on the shelves.
