Sergy Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Wow! Nice job, I predict! But only from 10/10/07? Quote
Chris Perkins Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 You like the look of that eh!Actually there will be a couple of little changes to the cover...main thing is that the coin images will be split so they don't overlap each other.I think the free coin is going to be an excellent sales incentive. In fact I'm already selling them as we speak! Bertrams just called and want to meet me at the Frankfurt Bookfair (because I told them that their main competitor is buying more than 2x the books they do, which is true).Another wholesaler ordered 200 copies today bringing total pre publication sales so far to 1050 books.And yes, it really won't be ready until October 10th, possibly a day or 2 earlier. I'm just finishing it this week before it goes to print the week after. Quote

Chris Perkins Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Vera Trinder in the Strand should hopefully have some promptly. Possibly Michael Coins in Notting Hill and you could even order it from Spink and eventually WHSmith, Borders and WG Foyles, but I think Vera Trinder should be quickest. Quote

Can you give me her address? Quote
Chris Perkins Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I think that's almost certainly Vera Trinder. 38 Bedford St, just off the Strand. Quote
Guest richbedforduk Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Congratulations! Nice looking tome, look forward to getting a copy.Have a drink on me. Quote
Ron Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Wow! Nice job, I predict! But only from 10/10/07?Chris,Is this book available as a download? I have the previous version which was downloadable, but I can't see this mentioned anywhere.If so, how do you manage the downloading of the free coin? :-) Quote
Chris Perkins Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Good point, I'd not thought that far ahead! ;-)I'm trying to find a company that can convert it into all popular ebook formats, not just PDF. This is harder than I thought as no one seems to answer me! So, it won't be available as a PDF until 2008. If you wanted a simple PDF with no bookmarks I could probably create that....£3.50 as usual. PM me. Quote
scottishmoney Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 But if you download it, you canna get it personally autographed by C. H. Perkins I will need one of those and the Banknotes guide when it comes off of the presses. Quote
