At the risk of sounding mean and flippant (I might be flippant but am rarely mean), that really is a 1st world problem you have there. I am very sure Chaosium is not being lazy or is trying to get your goat but let me give you a comparison. I am now at 4 months of incredible pain and the loss of walking. Covid and war sucks and are the gifts that keeps on giving! Edited May 18, 2022 by Bill the barbarian Quote ... remember, with a TARDIS, one is never late for breakfast!

OrdosMalleus Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 I'm so sorry you're having such serious health problems. That's really terrible. I'm certainly not comparing the two. I'm just talking about within the context of this forum and topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As am I, believe it or not. The main reason for your dilemma is Covid (one of my issues) and the war (the entire world’s issue). I have found the folk at Chaosium to be wonderful mostly. I am sure they will have your products as soon as it is feasible. Good luck on the wait. Hope it is not too long.

Shipping prices are based on weight and volume. Shippings costs have gone up a LOT. Sending these empty slipcases to our other warehouses just isn't worth the money unless we really increase the price for the item so we are waiting to see what happens. We could start selling the empty slipcases from just the US, but we know with absolute certainty that MANY of our fans outside of the US will try to order them and then complain about super high shipping costs. The grief just isn't worth it. One small ray of hope: We often sell these at US conventions. Please stop by our booth at Origins, Gen Con, Gamehole Con or PAX Unplugged. We also sold them at Chaosium Con. Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints - Chaosium, Inc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pestigor Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) A friend went to Gen Con and got me a slip case...my obsession can now rest until the Gaslight or Dreamlands come out (I can't remember which one is coming out first) Edited August 13, 2022 by Pestigor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudGreen Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Got mine at Gen Con also. Now I can quit following this thread. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlonsoAguilurk Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Anyone at GenCon willing to buy one for me and then send it to Florida? Know it's a stretch, but you can DM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
