Title: Star Wars Super Collector's Wishbook, 2nd Edition
Post by: dustrho on May 31, 2003, 12:33 PM: (http://a1055.g.akamai.net/f/1055/1401/5h/images.barnesandnoble.com/images/6360000/6362049.gif)

Does ANYONE here have a definitive date when this book is going to be released? I have a raincheck for this at my local Barnes & Noble, and they will only say "May" for an answer. Well, May is over in just over 12 hours.

I have the 1st edition of this book and it's a must-have for any Star Wars collector. I'm dying to get the 2nd edition, because it has TONS more pictures and items. It includes MOC/MISB pricing versus loose pricing! I can't wait to get it.

Click here (http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=2TYOXBEPJB&isbn=1574323342&itm=2) to read more about it from the Barnes & Noble website.

Not sure when we will get it up here.

Post by: dustrho on June 2, 2003, 10:12 PM: That really irritates me becuase on the publisher's site, Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Borders, they all said it was coming out in May. Now it's June 10th. What's the dilio yo? I want my book NOW! ;)

How the hell did you get your's two weeks ago, and where did you get it?!?!? I've been checking the Barnes & Noble website every day, and it just became available maybe a day or so ago.

I just got a voicemail today from my local Barnes & Noble that they finally got these in. Thankfully they're holding mine for 14 days, but I will be picking it up on Saturday.

There's nothing wrong with looking geeky. :-*
