C'mon, keep buyin' 'em, plenty left!

I'd like to beat last year's total.

 

[Magnus von Thornwood]

So Andrew about this Lulu...

Andrew what's up with this Lulu, I mean I already hooked into the dreaded eBay and PayPal and now I need to sign up with another service?

I mean I want the Calenders (2007-8 PDFs and 2009 Print ), but another service to sign up with makes me wonder...I mean there are limits to a Drooling Fan's, well droolinginess.

Working on it Andrew I was all ready to go for it a few nights ago, dropped it in my cart, and the default shipping came up as over US$100!!

I know it was probably something screwy but man that was a shocker. I found cheaper shipping but with our exchange rate it's borderline tough to justify. A while back when my Canuck Bucks were worth something it would have been easy.

I'm sure I'll still go for it, just need more time to wrestle that danged miser side of my mind into submission

 

[Andrew Boulton]

They're just a store, not really a service. You can pay via PayPal.

 

[Andrew Boulton]

They do have some rather scary next day shipping rates! The standard ones are pretty cheap, though.

 

[Magnus von Thornwood]

OK.

Dear Officer of Calender Compliance:

Having purchased Calenders for 2007 and 2008 as PDFs and a Print copy of 2009, I feel I should be marked as in Compliance with the Imperial Calender.

Yours,
Magnus.

 

[Andrew Boulton]

So noted!

FT, this is because last week(?) Lulu suddenly, without announcement, introduced mega-expensive shipping rates to certain areas--most or all outside the US, IIRC.

Since then they apparently reversed themselves, and pared it down to a much more reasonable rate.

The Office of Calendar Compliance:

Your representatives were once again most convincing this year, you really need not send them all this way via such overpowered warships but I understand given my lateness of compliance again.



Yeah, I broke down and snagged it, figure if I'm gonna watch the sun go around again the Traveller Calendar is a nice way to mark the days, and the charity angle is always good.

Thank you to all the contributing artists for their donation of talent and you Andrew for running the show.

So, what's the total stand at now? Or are you saving it for a grand announcement?

 

[Andrew Boulton]

The total is...a little disappointing, although it's only been a few weeks. Plus, there's the whole recession thing.

 

[far-trader]

Understandable I guess, still a shame.

You know the Reinforced Company of FGMP-BD Imperial Marine Calendar Compliance Drop Troops and the Ghalalk class they rode in on are done here. They could be off persuading some other good citizen...

 

[Rhialto the Marvelous]

OK OK, I yield.

I will order one.

Because I am a doormat.

I got an email at my Spica address, asking about the 2009 calendar. I told the guy SP doesn't make it anymore..... :smirk: :devil:

....I also sent him a link to your Lulu storefront, Andrew ....

 

[spinwardpirate]

I asked for one for my birthday or Xmas. Hopefully the missus will comply.

 

[Andrew Boulton]

Thanks^3!

 

[saundby]

OK, this subsector's going to be in compliance right from 001.

 

[ravells]

I've ordered mine of course!

What....are you saying that other people don't????

Here's to the wonderful artwork of Andrew and Scarecrow!!

 

[The Oz]

Calendar ordered.

Planetary deep meson guns may now stand down from alert....

 

[Andrew Boulton]

Excellent!
