It appears that the CCP loot shipping fairy was kind to me and likely not to others (particularly if they were looking to get one of the 1000 signed lithograph copies).

I placed my order Mar 21, 2015 15:27:31 PDT, about a day after the online store opened and I somehow managed to get copy 34/2001 of the limited issue. I also thought CCP staff had primae rights on the first 110 books.

Yep, my copy came pre-sticky. You've got to love an accidental rule 34 reference for an art book. ShockedLol

I'm probably not going to get mine for another 2 or 3 weeks.

It's interesting that you got a signed copy.
Maybe the signed copies are being sent in the order they are shipped, rather than the order in which they have been purchased?

I was easily able to change the delivery. Check this: http://www.fedex.com/se/delivery/ the password should be in a mail you got from them.

Just got mine - 315 of 2001
It is beautiful!

I do not think the numbers represented the order number, but maybe that is good considering the cluster it was for the first 1,000. Maybe they saw that someone was spamming the server for the first 1,000 and acted accordingly?

Either way, thanks CCP, the set is gorgeous... zero regrets!

This was the same with EVE: Source too.

The numbers on the books don't represent the order numbers. Smile

So what on earth does that mean?

I was order #1000045 and was one of the lucky few that got to purchase the book whilst everyone was having extreme struggles even logging in to the site thus I would have certainly been one of the fist 1000 if not probably one of the first 100 to purchase the book.

The Art of New Eden Site says
"The first 1,000 copies sold of the Limited Edition include the lithographs signed by each artist."


So despite not receiving my order yet, I would certainly hope my order number would mean I am getting a signed copy, as there is no doubt I was one of the first 1000 who PURCHASED.

On the same topic, why no tracking number on my order? Every single order I have ever made on the internet ( 1000's) has come with a tracking number. Even RMA's from faulty hardware have tracking numbers but the book I paid $89.99 USD and about $40 USD on shipping doesn't? Why has European FedEx deliveries receive emails regarding their deliveries and get package estimation dates and we UPS in North America get nothing and receive no notice at all?

I would like my shipments tracking number please.

Are you able to provide any estimates on how long it should take for the orders to ship? I was order #54 (March 20th, 11:25AM) and it's been in "Processing" for the last few days.

I took a screenshot of my receipt from the website, but it looks like I never received an email or any other confirmation of my order even though my card was billed.

Also, someone might want to look into the ticketing system on the Art of New Eden website. I tried to submit a ticket regarding this and kept getting an error saying something like "Please remove any scripts or html tags".

"The most punchable face in New Eden."

Be excellent to each other.

Yeah its very strange I got the same issue there too. I found you could submit a ticket if you didn't copy and paste any words or sentences. If you type out your inquiry, it shouldn't give you that error.

I think its ridiculous that European FED Ex customers get emails regarding their order but North Americans being forced to use UPS don't receive any notices at all.

Why is that CCP?

So CCP? Are you gonna answer our inquiries?

Why do European customers get to use Fed EX and get emailed date of arrival details while we North American customers must use UPS and get no indication on where our package is and when its coming ?

All we get is a "processing" in our Orders page

I find your signature quite ironic considering your post.

But have you consideted that it may not be CCP's fault that UPS doesn't deliver the same service as FedEx? They may have hone with the choice that provides the cheapest / best shipping for the customers

Haha Why is that?

You Implying I'm angry?

I am merely KINDLY INQUIRING which is quite evident due to the lack of usage of this wonderful little punctuation mark in English grammar called an exclamation mark or exclamation point. This punctuation mark is often used to indicate strong feelings or high volume (shouting), and often marks the end of a sentence.

With such grammatical tools at ones disposal to use, its quite simple to easily convey anger in a typed sentenced if one feels the need.

See any in my posts here?

CCP_Mimic told me to open a support ticket because I was getting the same HTML/Script error, so I did. I'm going to be *very* upset if I don't get one of the signed copies :/

I had mine ordered: Mar 20, 2015 11:31:33 AM EDT, which is ridiculously early compared to people who have already received theirs, and ordered them a day or two later.

As far as the HTML/Script error is concerned: don't use any signs like " / or the like. No sure if fullstop/period is allowed, but just avoid any others.
