Title: Mail order problems
Post by: Ville on September 01, 2003, 04:14:20 PM
I really would like to order OBAM but the PayPal service keeps bouncing me around...
They want me to call their customer service (yeah right, like I'm gonna call internationally a service number on the other side of the world...)

Why is the PP the only way to order?
At least you guys couold provide links to international retailers so I could try to order from them.

Ville,

At present, PayPal is the only way to order directly from us, because becoming a credit card merchant is extremely expensive and a small company like Driftwood simply doesn't have that as an option right now.

I'm not sure at this point which international shipping distributors will be offering OBAM for sale, but I will attempt to find out for you.

Regards,
Brian Leybourne.

Not to mention the fact that they like to ream you a new asshole every time you use their service, as a merchant.

Well got everything sorted out  with pp(hope theyll lose my phone bill in the net or something...)

Got the PDF today and after initial browsing I'd say you guys have succeedeed in producing a good supplement. I personally like the amount of beasts in the book. Indeed everyone should be used sparingly but each one will make a great focus for a story.
How come you didn't print any random encounter tables? ;-)

Hopefully TFOB will be available as a PDF soon.

Glad you managed to get those issues sorted out and get your copy of the PDF.

It should have arrived from the Printer already. We're looking into it but essentially, it should be literally any day now.
