Re: Christmas Surprise Packages are here !
Palladium could definitely benefit from setting up an Amazon Marketplace so people can order with Prime Shipping.
I know a ton of people who would order more books, more often, if they didn't have to worry about shipping fees.
I know I would love to support the company directly, but I can't afford it, so I have purchased every single book I own used through vendors like Amazon. I get a "like new" condition book for the same list price but without the shipping fees.
This year I will be buying a Christmas Surprise Package, but this will mark the first time I have bought from them directly, and likely will only ever do direct purchases during special events like this. Even "Christmas in July" and other sales are a no go, as after the shipping is factored in, it's still cheaper to pay full price elsewhere and avoid shipping entirely.
Maybe look into an Amazon Marketplace, Alex? We can't afford books and shipping, and as long as shipping cost is a part of the equation, our money isn't going to Palladium, and that's disappointing for a fan like me.
Just my two cents.

How can we not give you due support and credit?

Normality is Relative, Sanity is Conceptual, and I am neither.
