Hi Markus S.,

 

When should we expect this book for the people that ordered them in the USA?

[Markus]

Hi all,

 

Tracking says catalogues have arrived at US inward office of exchange on Sep 15.

So I am awaiting them coming week and then I forward the copies asap. Will leave

a note when all catalogues have been shipped.

[Markus]

Short update:

 

I don't know why but catalogues are still at inward office of exchange.

Called USPS yesterday and was put through three times but obviously

no one there knows more than the sender and I know from the tracking

number.

 

I apologize for the delay but I as soon as the shipment is here, I send

out the catalogues without any further delay.

 

[Kronos]

Forgot to update, I recieved my copy on friday and it is very good. Thank you for arranging this Markus and an excellent job in translation

[John A Stuart]

Are the ones for Canada in the US bunch Markus? John

Unfortunately yes. Sorry.

[Jean]

And the French one Markus?

[Markus]

@Jean: No, this shipment contains just the catalogues for US/CA/AU.

The rest, i.e. all what is not US/CA/AU/GB/IRE, is in another parcel.

 

To all: Got an update this morning that the parcel arrived in Greensboro, NC.

Was in NJ for 10 days! That means it should be here by tomorrow, Friday, and

I will start to foward the US/CA/AU catalogues right away.

 

In short, there was a delay I don't have control over, but forwarding of

the catalogues proceeds. Thank you all for your patience.

Thank you for your efforts - translating, colecting money, ordering, shipping...andm uch more I am sure. Your work is much appreciated.

[John A Stuart]

No sweat. It is a nostalgic book for me as I saw that collection a couple of times. In fact some of those tsuba are from your neck of the woods, a collector in Germany, I believe. John

[Jean]

You had me exhausted on this one Markus, I am going to bed...

 

Just a last question, when do you think you send the book to France (I have a birthday gift on the 15th)

[Stephen]

I think (could be wrong) that European copies have been shipped out of the UK already.

[Kevin Adams]

Completely understandable, your efforts are greatly appreciated!

Jean, I will make sure that you receive your book in time. Sorry for giving you a hard time.

I am back in Europe on October 5th and so I can send you the copy I already have at home

at the latest as express mail by 6th.

[Jean]

I am offering him 2 of your books + this one

thanks, nice book

[Soshin]

Hi Everyone,

 

Received my copy of the book. It is a very nice book and is well worth the price. :D

[Jean]

Received mine today, Markus. Thanks a lot.

[b.hennick]

Received mine today in Canada. Thanks Marcus. One thing of note, at the Museum one only saw one side of the tsuba. Here when both sides differ you get to see both sides. BONUS!

[Kevin Adams]

Mine must not be far behind then. :D

[Bazza]

My copies arrived a couple days ago. Magnificent book - here I'm talking of presentation, design and layout. The book is a masterpiece in its own right. I'm assuming that the content is spot on and being a sort of "iron guy" I'm going to enjoy spending a lot of time looking through this, then looking at my "iron discs" for comparison. Nothing much there to write home about!! Oh, and being a sort of iron guy I fair swooned over Darcy's Juyo "Eye Candy" post. Wht go to Heaven - we have it here on Earth.

 

Huge thanks to Piers for making a great effort to bring this book to us and to Marcus for posting out my copies. The good will of folks on this Board is truly humbling.

 

Best regards,

Barry Thomas

aka BaZZa.

Some great iron tsuba in this book. Wish I could have attended the exhibition.

[Kevin Adams]

Received mine today. Thanks so much for organizing this group buy!
