Sorry it is a little blurry.
I am checking my books for mold and such, and as I came to this book I found this little guy. There was another one about 7cm away. I have not been able to find more.
I have my library in the basement and humidity is at a little over 60%, so I either have to move my library or get a dehumidifier that will help a 20m² room.
How do you keep humidity low?
I started participating in the curious king pre orders with red rising, but I notice that they don't commonly have a 100 edition.
Do you think this one will?
It sold out quicker the second time lol Might have had less copies.
Is this the next batch? A lower quality edition?
What does a late pledge mean?
I have no interest in selling my books, but I am curious to know how serious people are in protecting their hardbacks from oily prints.
Or do you just accept it as a part of being a book owner?
​
​
I probably shouldn't expect this gold stuff to stay perfect on the book for very long, but when it arrives with an ugly gap in the design, does that justify a mail to tbb?
​
I could imagine this gold stuff overall just being a poor choice as it will show wear and tear really easily in the future.
I don't remember this ever happening before, but I got charged with taxes at checkout and again as a invoice from my shipping company.
​
It also looks like only one book is getting shipped. Which I think is not a problem.
​
I haven't paid the invoice yet, as I am waiting for a respond from tbb.
If I don't pay them within 7 days they will ship the books back, so I was wondering if I pay the invoice can I then ask for money back from tbb.
Many new books sell out very quickly, while older books that have been on the site for months keep getting pushed further back in the catalog.
​
I don't know many of them, so I was curious if there are a few that stands out to you as being a solid purchase.
So at the end of June I will either get my book or I will get a mail that I will have to wait more.
​
I feel like they could be a little more transparent if i can expect a delay.
Maybe even give me a weeks notice of any delays. Not on the expected shipping period.
​
Is this normal practice when it comes to delays?
I have grown up with lightnovels and webnovels for 8+ years, as it was "free". I have grown out of it because of a lack of deeper story and deeper characters.
I really want to enjoy high fantasy, but my brain is so used to all the dopamine and early progression you get get from webnovels, which is just drugs for my adhd brain.
When it comes to high fantasy, I feel like I am just reading the chapters just to read. I never really get absorbed into the universe, as I do with the fast paced stories I will find on webtoon...
Is a slow burn something that I can teach myself to enjoy if I just keep going, or do you recommend specific series that could be an easy gateway?
Maybe use weighted objects for a few days, or a hair dryer on low heat or something?
These solutions might just make it worse, i have no idea.
I am pretty satisfied with how they turned out. I care the least about the edge that I will never look at.
From a scale of 1 to 10 how slightly damaged are my slightly damaged 🤔
Edit: i only showed the damage. Everything else is perfect.
