My copy of Webshop exclusive HC 3rd world war came with a bashed corner even though it was packaged well. This was last week and it took them until now to get back to my query: sadly the book is now sold out. I got a refund and, sure can still read it, but a bit annoyed tbh. I often get bashed corners and some creasing when getting books in the post. It used to really wind me up but as most shopping has been online the last 2 years due to Pandemic...I cope better now with things like this. Most of the time. -Ralph

Tooth Shop saga continues as we get into a back and forth. Still waiting on stuff from 3/11. Customer services say some items went out of stock and are being re-ordered (but were in stock when ordered) and will turn up...sometime. Another item wasn't reordered by mistake.
Hmmmm.
HMMMMM.

3 books have turned up. As for the missing 3, 1 shows as out of stock when it was in stock when I ordered it 23 days ago. The other 2 are in stock. Back to Customer Services...

What a pain. I’ve just seen that the damaged book I got is now back in stock. So do I ask again or do I just live, since I’ve had the money back and really it’s just resale value on the thing. There’s no point. Must stay off the page though as there are still books there the completists in me would have in a heartbeat but I know will really Just be taking up space

Well worth £6. Alas, I don't think Daily Dredds sold well, hence no volume 3. -Ralph

Talking of the Shop, Ralph is STILL waiting on 3 books ordered on 3/11 to be sent out!!! I did chuck another order in on 25/11. Maybe they will be sent at Easter.
Been catching up on Tooth and Meg and only about 5 weeks behind now. Alas, Skip Tracer clearly had an out for a continuation. Loved Pandora Perfect. The previous one-shot stories had left me cold but loved the sausage moon series. It doesn't feel at all like a Tooth strip but it was fun so I'll let it go. Mayflies also has potential.
The Out Book II is not grabbing me the way Book 1 did.

I've just done that too. I was long past due reading up to the last jumping on point, but I realised the current strips are all finishing with this Wednesday's issue too to clear the decks for the Christmas issue. So I've been reading the last 20+ issues over the last fortnight. Good run, nothing really in there letting the side down apart from Tracer and possibly that short Jaeger story as I've no idea what's going on there. Felt like it was a follow up to something I've forgotten. Everything else - good fun, although I agree about The Out. Seems to have stalled after part 1. Now that's all sorted I think I'll read some of the Treasury trades I've had from the sale before moving back to novels for Christmas.

Yes, I couldn't follow that Jaegir 3-parter at all. It felt like pages were missing!

Last week of the sale so have gone back for the 2nd Daily Dredd book & the Dan Dares. I was considering Trigan but the discount is only 15% and I wonder if my subscription benefit might get them for half off.

No because you bought them from a UK company, they're just shipping from there.

2 of the 3 missing books from 3/11 have arrived. Hilariously, a big box with order #5 from 25/11 turned up last night without a shipping notice.
Just waiting on 1 book now...
And caught up with Tooth for first time in ages. Loving Judge Dredd: The Musical.
