your store can still re-order it(& other solution)

In Response To: I wish I had it, but they lost my preorder (Dave Cummings)

Any comic book store who wants your business will be more than happy to re-order any of my books for you. I go to a lot of effort to make sure that all the trades and hardcovers are constantly in stock so that the retailers can always reorder the books and make them available to new readers.

Your store should be eager to make it up to you by reordering the book and getting a healthy supply of extras to keep in stock in the store for new readers. I always urge readers to try to get my books through your comic store. And I try to make it very easy for the comic stores to do this.

If for some short sighted reason, they do not want your business and they refuse to order my book, do not let that stop you from getting it. You can always order it from me directly.

In fact if anyone needs to do this for the Dreams Hardcover, I'll make you a SPECIAL OFFER as a consolation prize for anyone refusing to order it for you. You can order it directly from me (cover price) POSTAGE FREE in the U.S.
Just send your order to the address on the Kabuki Checklist in the back of every Kabuki book.

Try to got through your store. We want to keep all of the stores in business. But if someone refused, here is your safety net. I'm not going to let that stop my books from getting to my readers.

: I preordered the book back when it was originally
: solicited. So, I go to the comic shop Wednesday, when
: the new books come out. And I ask if the Kabuki Dreams
: HC that I preordered came in. Their response was,
: "Well, we misplaced your order form" and
: that they didn't order any other copies because of
: thier idea that they wouldn't sell it (funny story
: though, none of the comic shops around here sell A
: Distant Soil either, but you can find it easily at
: Borders, something that Colleen said that she makes
: more sales of her books at places like Borders than
: actual comic shops). This wasn't the first time that
: happened. They sold the copy of the Red Star HC that I
: preordered. But, I went to every other comic shop in
: Indianapolis and none of them even preordered it.

: Believe me, I was pretty pissed about it. I really wanted
: to get that book.

: But, I am going to give my preorder sheet to a different
: comic shop and hope that this doesn't happen again.

: But, this just kinda reinforces my movement to buy more
: of my TPBs at places like Borders than the comic shops
: around the area. The places like Borders has a better
: atmosphere anyways.

: But, I'll probably order the HC from you when it is in
: the order forms on future Kabuki issues.

: But I am glad you had a great time in France. I really
: hope to make it to Chicago this year. Every time I
: plan to go, something happens that causes me not to
: go.

: Best of luck David
