    I prefer the printed versions - but they won't be delivered until weeks after the Kindle versions are available.

    That's really poor.

    I appreciate the efforts to save the trees, but sometimes it's just much more efficient and sensible to use paper printing.
    Dave , I think this is an Amazon issue that will resolve itself.
    we often see delivery dates for our print titles that are well beyond the publication date, before stock has been booked into or arrived at their distribution centres. They tend to start placing orders around a month before publication on our books, and we use one of the best distributors in the country.
    I would suggest that if you order it , you’ll get it on publication date.
    I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

    I am not a number, I am a free man.

      OK - thanks for the clarification.

      I've never had that problem before. I'll reserve my copy.

        Just for clarification...


        ... some pay barrier entry premises have CCTV surveillance on the barrier.
