Everything is moving forward on all fronts, but lets lead-off with Flash Sales starting with Christmas in July! That’s right, you can order a Palladium Christmas Surprise Package right NOW! But only for the next 11 days. Read on."
glad they told me, I was about to stop reading.
"Christmas in July (and Flash Sales are coming) to celebrate two landmark anniversaries – Rifts® and Robotech®"
no, you just told us the christmas sale is the 1st flash sale, sooooo, Flash sales are here.
"It is the 25th Anniversary of Rifts® and the 30th Anniversary of Robotech®."
Happy Birthday
"We’ve done Christmas in July three or four times in the past, and a number of people have been asking us to do it again this year, so we decided we would make it part of the 2015 Rifts® and Robotech® anniversary celebrations."
Just you try and separate those eh tiger.
"The Christmas in July Surprise Package is very similar to our annual Palladium Christmas Surprise Package offer. $84-$92 (often more!) worth of Palladium Books products can be yours for only $42 plus shipping and handling. You are guaranteed to get an absolute minimum of eighty-four dollars ($84) retail value in your Surprise Package, but MOST Surprise Packages come in at the $90-$95 range, especially if you provide us a nice big Wish List for us to make selections from. Sometimes it contains even more than that."
doing it for you, the fans.
"All items are “hand-picked” by Kevin Siembieda from YOUR “wish list.”"
but (and glad they clarified it was MY wish list)
"NO AUTOGRAPHS, sorry. We’re so busy with Gen Con prep"
and packing bags, which requires us the pick up the books but sorry, no can sign.
"This Christmas in July offer is our way of saying “thank you” to our loyal fans, delivering a little Christmas cheer six months early, and celebrating 25 years of Rifts® and 30 years of Robotech®. Not to mention putting a smile on the faces of some big kids.
"
I thought sales were about cash flow and shifting stagnant stock.
"The Cost: $42.00 plus shipping and handling (usually another $10-$15), approximately $52-$60 total for most purchasers in the USA,"
why so vague? and then spasmodically good with math. $52-$57
"about $15-$20 more to Canada. Shipping overseas is two or three times the cost to Canada."
as Jaymz says great deal in the USA not so good out side. $30-$60 for people out side north america for shipping, on top of the $42. ($72-$102)
"UPDATE: Robotech®: The Expeditionary Force Marines™ – July release
"
you know, given how this has been panning out, it looks like it may make it and Gencon too.
"UPDATE: Processing your Pre-Orders for Robotech®: The Expeditionary Force Marines™ this week
Due to the massive number of pre-orders for Robotech®: The Expeditionary Force Marines™ (which is awesome), Kathy Simmons is starting to process the charges to your credit cards today and throughout the weekend. We’re telling you this now, so that, a) we have your current shipping address, and b) you are not surprised when you see a charge for $20.95 plus shipping on your credit card pop up. Especially since some of these pre-orders go back some time.
"
especially since there is still no actual product so... they are committed to making it happen, lest they take money for nothing. (and chicks for free)
"UPDATE: Robotech® RPG Tactics™ – New Rules and Stats
"
New stuff needs rules polishing.
UPDATE: Chaos Earth® Resurrection™ – July release
No work this week, i have concerns that packing bags, Gencon and stuff that until R:EFM is finished this one will be unable to make it.
"Closing thoughts
We’re all working at a fevered pace. Days are flying by. So is artwork and innovations. So busy I’m behind on my emails and posting of Murmurs. Good stuff coming. Keep those imaginations burning bright. Oh and Merry Christmas in July!
"
not so much thought but a statement.
Innovations? the act of innovating; introduction of new things or methods. well, I suppose. Robotech is getting new rules, R:EFM is a new book. yeah. those will be new things, soon.
