Geesh. Don't you people ever read the first posting in the thread? It gives the date and time for the next pre-order feeding frenzy, along with which titles will be up.

+1, definitely makes sense to have one.

I just click the last unread post button. Just lazy I guess.

I'll going for Rollerball and might add Sexy Beast to my order.

Make it happen! ;-)

Just curious…How do you guys think ROLLERBALL will do sales wise? Will it sell out in a few days, weeks, months?

I have a feeling it falls in THE FURY, BODY DOUBLE sales pace range. Or will we have a CHRISTINE on our hands?

if it is I'll order Rollerball and The Driver for sure...maybe used cars as well...I was gonna hold off but a freebie copy of Alfredo (which I was on the fence about) would push me over

I would guess not Christine but similar to Body Double. The Fury lasted like 5 or 6 months, which I think is much longer than this will last. Who know for sure, though. Best advice: if you want it, order it as soon as possible.

I've never ordered from Twilight time before. Do I need to have an account with them to order or can I just put the item in the cart and purchase it without signing up for an account? Do they take payments through Paypal or only from credit/debit cards? I think I remember hearing they put a temporary hold on your credit card and release the funds in a few days and then charge when they ship, but they charge Paypal immediately. Is any of this true?

And is this the correct site to place a pre-order?

Yes, and an olive one too.

Yes, you need an account to order. You don't necessarily have to have it created in advance, but you'll have to create one to complete your order.

Yes, they accept payment through PayPal, and yes, payment is made immediately.

When paying by credit card, they put in a pre-authorization for the total amount that you're ordering. This expires in a day or two or three. Your account doesn't actually get charged until your order ships.

And lastly, yes, that URL works.

Hopefully not hours. I want to order a copy of that and Two Rode Together, but I'll be busy with some family medical issues when pre-orders go live. I expected Wild at Heart to go fairly quickly, and that's not sold out yet, so I don't think Rollerball will be much of a problem.

almost 100% CERTAIN not hours. I'd honestly expect a couple months at the earliest.

[duggie walker]

Unbelievably, my pre-orders from last month have still not shipped despite my ordering them within minutes of them going up. Anyone else from the UK in the same position? Even if they were to ship today, I wouldn't get them until early-mid May.

I don't mind a certain amount of delay but this is ridiculous. I'm going to cancel, drop three of the titles I've ordered and just bundle BROADWAY DANNY ROSE with tonight's pre-orders. I'm also going to stop ordering blind-buys. It's not worth the aggravation.

Not me I'm afraid. My copies of Wild At Heart & Used Cars arrived today. It's really strange the random way the ship orders.

This may have already been asked but I don't have the time to go through 500+ pages of posts.

Will the Twilight Time titles ever be given a wider release? How long do they hold the rights to their titles?

We do not know if any of the titles will be getting a wide release. TT owns the exclusive distribution rights for three years.
