    Yeah I got the 4 issues too....

    I wonder why? Coz a double sized shipment means a double sized hit to the bank

    If it's just to put us into line with the ones that were 2 ahead I can survive.... If it's to skip a month I'll be upset.... And if it's to finish it earlier and we are constantly doubled I don't know what to feel....

    Surely it'll just be a catch up...

    If you were a shipment behind, that should be the catchup. We should see how many volumes the early people got, to see if this is what's happened.

    I'm in the slower shipment and picked up four books today from the post office. Assume it's just the promised catchup.

    There was a promised catchup?

    I can't find where I read it online, so maybe it was in the paperwork with the first issues, but there was definitely something about how multiples issues would be shipped in order to catch "new" suscribers up to the point where they are getting the latest issues each month.

    It was buried in this topic, but it was noted in post #107 that they told me that over the phone, and in post #108 it was included in the letter most people got with their first shipment.

    The info letter says what I posted yesterday about them sending extra volumes (and charging you for them), until you catch up.
    I was expecting it to start straight away, but it looks like they only start catching you up from the fourth shipment... after most of the freebies are sent.

    The larger packages of 4 volumes must be taking longer, as mine didn't show up yesterday either.

    I got my next shipment today - Regeneration One
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!
