I thought they were going to be sent out the first week of July and that they were at ASIA. I also thought the DVD was released June 30th. ?

I waiting for Ervin's books and Alan's DVD's also Chris. I know first-hand how hard it is to get things like books and DVD's finished (it always takes about 4 times longer than you budget for), so I'm going to wait patiently. It'll be worth the wait, I'm sure!

Cheers,
Dave F.

Hi folks,

I had a slight issue with the manufacturers art department in regards to the cover, thus we had a slight delay on the dvd's. The issue has been resolved and I should be shipping discs either this evening or tomorrow (July 10).
Thanks for your patience.
MC

Update:

I just got an email from the manufacturer letting me know the discs are ready to pick up. So they will be shipping out this coming week. :D
Birthday discount? Let me think about that one.

Hi emailed ervin as lost some emails computer probs, but might be useful

Ah, the books! I've received word from the printer that they are on
their way and will be arriving at the port of Oakland on July 22. I'll
get them out of customs immediately afterwards, put them into storage,
and then begin to ship books out. I really think that they'll have
been worth the wait.

Cheers, Ervin Somogyi

Does that mean that the books weren't at ASIA like that one discussion stated awhile back?
I hope Ervin remembers to sign mine.
I was really hoping to have mine by my Birthday, don't see that happening now.
Well, at least I should have Alan's DVD by then. :)

I received my DVD yesterday and have watched most of it, but need to watch a couple times and do a little web research to get the concepts solid in my mind. Allen has done a good job with the video.

Well, if you mailed mine out the same day as Fred's then maybe it will make it to Florida by Saturday.
You all must have slow mail in Canada. I get stuff from Oregon in 5 days.

The border is the bottleneck, unfortunately. Plus Canada post doesn't operate on Saturdays, at least with delivery service.

I was hoping to have the Somogyi books and the DVD here by my birthday. I don't see the Somogyi books getting here since they were supposably picked up yesterday. But I'll keep my fingers crossed on the DVD. But it ain't looking good if the border is a bottleneck. Only 2 days of mail delivery left. :(
