God, I remember when I was in Italy in 2001 and the Euro and the dollar were almost 1 for 1. This country has really gone to shit financially the last 7 years.

I can't wait to be China's slaves..."Dance U.S.!!! Dance!!! We own your asses!"

a weak currency is not all bad news, it boosts exports, which helps the trade balance.

Does it say anywhere how big the book is? Not pages but dimensions. Because that Art of Modern Rock book was bigger than I thought it was from seeing it online. That book was 13.2 x 11.4 x 1.7 inches (according to Amazon). Do you think this is similar?

Anyone have an answer to the question of the DIMENSIONS of this book? I only want to pay art book prices if it is actually sized like an art book... The size of the 5X1 book was the main reason I did not purchase it.

Thank you Alan Greenspan...Why don't you let me wallow around in my self-pity and simplicity for a little longer?

Also, you’re assuming the U.S. manufactures anything for export anymore. I think this book is a perfect example. Have it printed with lead-based paint in China or some place for dirt cheap and then have our children lick the pages clean. Yum. (Sorry, I'm bitter today for some reason. My wife is going to love it when I get home.)

Thanks!

Much better sizing than 5X1, which I believe was 8"x10"

is the 50 buck book in full color or will it be some/mostly black and white like the other books they have put out?

I've emailed both Ames and 10c to inquire about multiple shipping.
I asked at the same time if it was going to be available in shops.
10c has not replied at all, Ames did about shipping but ignored the 'shops' question.
that makes me think it WILL be available in shops, but they'd rather we buy directly from them (more profit) so they don't want to tell us.

Yeah but how much will it be to buy in Europe if it sells in shops??

IT works out around €60 including shipping.

Could they really charge that in a shop??

I don't know whether to wait or buy it now.

Its my xmas pressie from Santy

edit for spelling

I've ordered the special edition and just thoughtb fuck it. The amount I spent on 2003 boots collecting them when i could have spent a tenth buying from ten club was a hrash lesson learnt.

would be so cool though if the band would sign it as a secret extra gift ...hint hint hint.....surely thats not too much to ask

Ten Club did confirm in an email to me though that they are exactly the same product from the Ames site and the ten club site.

as per colby, they do not know if this book will ever be sold in stores, as of now the answer is no but that could change

what other art books have the put out? do you mean photography books? the photos were shot B&W, the posters were not printed B&W, they will be printed in full color

As the dollar is as low as ever it is the perfect time to buy the book for us europeans ... hehehehe!!

Just ordered the limited edition ... I gotta be out of my f**king mind to pay such a sum for a book?!?!!!

ok, I'm talking out of my arse (no comments Helen )

Turns out I didn't ask Ames about the retail issue (really thought I did, must have changed my mind whilst writing).
so obviously they couldn't ignore something I didn't ask could they?
sorry, I'm an idiot.

got an email from them since and they said they have no plan to release in shops at this time (and if they don't in the US there's sod all chances it get released in Europe...)

I ordered the Ltd. Edition. I am a little annoyed though that they charged my credit card back on November 4th instead of waiting until the book actually ships next month.

10c always does that with pre-orders.

eyecanwalk

lelmath

i just bought a LE yesterday, so I take it, i got one of the last 100 copies left? Haven't encountered any 'sold out' notice so far though...

eyecanwalk

how do you know about 100 copies? how many extra are there? or are thyey just some of the 2600 order that didnt go thru?

lelmath

i think santos l. halper says so few pages ago, no? Unless I got the wrong impression or something...Somebody says 'we go a hundred left, get them while you can'...

There is a $50 dollar version!!!!!! But that one if you can't afford the limited edition. No one is forcing you to pay $200!!! Are you saying PJ should not offer high quality limited editions for fans who can afford them!?

God damn.
