I wonder if it's possible For Love's Sake can get another pressing like Kamikaze Girls recently did.

[rapta]

Couldn't really afford it, but felt like I should take advantage of the sale (and help out both TWF and Terracotta) so went for these:



Might get Love Hotel and/or Scent of a Spell another time, which would get me up to date with all the Director's Company titles (and Shadow of Fire of course).

[JackyJacquard]

Huh, I’d misinterpreted that sale as just being the list prices, not an additional 20%!

Can’t possibly afford everything I want though. Do Third Window always bring out a standard edition eventually?

[Qbrickanon]

Damn I was just in the middle of check out and the code disappeared. I guess it was on UK time.

Oh I feel that, its happened to me on sales before. Even if I know about them for the entire duration I still leave things until the end. Which is the only way I show restraint - if I order at the start of a sale I’ll just dwell on the other stuff I could’ve got and end up grabbing it at the end

I think I checked out at 23:59 haha

I've managed to grab some things from sales AFTER the cut-off time before, namely a last sale order from Vinegar Syndrome but that's probably because I was checking out/paying for the items in the order.

I was so busy with work, I completely forgot to complete my order on Friday.

Your wallet thanks you for your sacrifice

[rapta]

Just got my sale order, will definitely order from Terracotta again as they always take care with packing and often have slipcover copies in stock when they're OOS elsewhere. Big up!
