Expensive Hobby - How do you plan your preorders?
I’m going to start mapping things out on a spreadsheet and really understand whether I want to buy it or FOMO is hitting hard. What do you guys do to try not to go broke? Also the shipping adds up bad. Scary to see it.
Bolt Ons
Anyone else have a bunch of bolt ons that haven’t shipped with any sub boxes? I still haven’t seen Mortedant’s Peril ship for me or my latest grimdark magazine. My August sff shipped. Already received July sff.
Husband thinks I have an addiction…
I just think I’m passionate.
Vinyl Case Damage
Is this something you guys would reach out to the vendor about? These are from Materia Store, my preorder for Guild Wars 2. Just came in and this is on every sleeve. It’s basically a hole, it’s split apart on every one. Am I being too picky about this? I mean it’s expensive.
Gilded Edges
My favorite thing about gilded edges are those pretty scratch marks they always come with lol.
What are your thoughts on gilded edges?
Does anybody else feel like… it’s frustrating to get a cohesive full book set for this long series? Even my paperbacks, some of them are much smaller than the others. Looking at special editions and the companies releasing them, they get released in batches and I can maybe get 4-6 of one set but have to pay $500 for 1-3 in the aftermarket. And then The Last Hours looks super different from FL, and now we get dust jackets on Infernal Devices? Or the designs are different. Does anyone else feel frustrated by the inconsistency and also hard to even collect them in general? Especially when entering the SE scene “late”.
