Like many my pre-order is in with Amazon.co.uk Hope they are getting a big delivery. That is the subject of this thread. Are Osprey/SLitherine going to meet the 11th Feb delivery date in the UK. I imagine this is largely a printing and distribution issue, and I would hope that with a company like Osprey behind them the logistics behind the printing should be quite smooth?

Pretty good going, did not think it was released for another 9 days yet!

It isn't officially - it seems that FoG has attracted the sort of early selling that JK Rowling fought so hard against :D

Nik,

in the case of my local source, it is simply that, since time immemorial, he has received his Osprey publications anywhere up to a month before the "oficial" release date. So naturally, when he received his initial order of FoG - he put 'em out for sale.

No skullduggery involved, unlike what may have been the case with Ms Rowling (I waited for them because I had to.) I've seen 'em - but have to wait until Thursday to pick mine up.

The wait is killing me!
