Amazon Grief

I've heard from some of you asking about two things with ed&bv. First, what's up with the price listed on amazon, and secondly... WHEN THE HECK will they get their copy ordered weeks (and maybe months) back?!!

As for the price, no ed&bv is NOT $59.98 US. It is $24.95 US. I don't know why that inflated price is showing, I'm guessing there are a few sellers that have been allowed to jack up the price given there is no other stock. But, once amazon has stock again, you will see the price back to $24.95 US.

Now, as for when the books will be shipped. We now have stock. YAY! As I've explained to some of you, ed&bv sold out quicker than my publisher anticipated. The reprint was ordered, but before long stock was depleted. Plus, a new printer was employed and my publisher encountered unforeseen delays. All of this sums up to you having to wait for your copy of ed&bv. The good news is that the copies have been shipped and are on their way to amazon. I expect to see amazon showing stock and filling the back orders any day now.

Once I know amazon has stock and is shipping, I'll post again to let you know. I'm going for a much needed chocolate and tea break now.

Hi Dreena - I featured one of your recipes in Transitions triathlon mag a couple summers ago.

I'm thrilled for you that you have sold-out issues to deal with; I'm sure Arsenal Pulp Press is thrilled too. Congrats!

Hmm well over here in Montreal, the Chapters I work at was properly stocked... and now I have to go get my husband more of the book's Rice Krispie squares that I just made for the 3rd time.

Everything in the book looks awesome - I can't wait to get my copy! It's great to see a vegan book do this well, congratulations Dreena :)

It looks like a great book. I'm sorry for all the problems you're having. That's obnoxious. I hope Amazon gets them back in stock soon.

Want me to go yell at them? They're only a few miles from me. :)
