Pat, Simpson's takea Visa, Mastercard and American Express, and sell internationally; you should be able to use them?

policeluger · 05-20-2007, 11:06 AM

Pat....if you can't buy international......I'll make sure you get one and you can pay me direct, and when it arrives I'll mail it to you....let me know

Ed, I'm having trouble with the section where my data is added. I get an error message "javascript error line 9" and nothing happens. I guess I'll have to call Simpson directly.

policeluger · 05-20-2007, 01:27 PM

Pat, which copy do you want, standard or leather bound....I'll order, or I guess right now pre-order it and you can send Pay-Pay to my account plus 3% for thier fees and we'll worry about shipping when book arrivers.....is this OK with you?

policeluger · 05-20-2007, 02:14 PM

OK...will will contact you off of LF later with PP instructions....

bradsimpson · 05-20-2007, 07:41 PM

We can ship to France no problem, but we don't take Paypal (our accountant hates it.) We will add about $30 for First Class International S&H when we run your credit card.

The book has been on the web-site for just 48 hours, and only 73 Deluxe Editions are left. At this rate they will be sold out well before they arrive in July. And they have only been marketed on the web-site.

policeluger · 05-20-2007, 09:00 PM

Pat....let me know what you want me to do....

bradsimpson · 06-06-2007, 05:25 PM

I just received an E-Mail today from the printer in Thailand. The books are almost finished. I should have advance copies sent via Air Mail in the next week or two. I'll try to get at least one of each of the Deluxe & Standard Editions for myself and Graham & Ed, as well as Standard Edition review copies for "Man At Arms", "Gun Report", etc.

All other copies will arrive via sea freight next month. I hope to have them at the Kansas City Gun show at the end of July. Maybe I'll see some of you there?

The 100 Deluxe Editions are almost 50% sold out. You can make sure you get a copy reserved at: www.simpsonltd.com

the gunman · 06-06-2007, 06:53 PM

Ed tried to order deluxe edtion through the simpson site . No luck getting through ( you no my computer skills) sent in a payment to them this morning. Glad I read this forum just called them to lock in a copy. Then called back to get another deluxe copy before there all gone. Really looking foward to this book . Its sure great to know a famous author congratulations Ed. You did something many people wish they could do.

Edward Tinker · 06-06-2007, 09:59 PM

Thanks Richie,

the support from fellow collectors has enabled me and Graham to go this far. Heck, I met Graham off of Jan's forum, so it is nice to have made so many friends this way. I am sure we accidently left names out of the aknowledgments area, and we apoligize in advance. That said, we have included numerous examples of fellow collectors Simson's, I think around 35 different collectors supplied photos of their guns (some collectors have 2, 3 or even 7 Simsons), and we tried to show a wide range of finishes, variartions in photography occured, but also gives you a feel for real bluing by the assorted colors and angles. Overall, we are excited at seeing the finished book.

I got an E-Mail from the printer that the books were being bound today. That is the last step in production. Advance copies should be Air Mailed this week. If the rest are sea freighted this week or next, I should have them in five or six weeks.

I'm anxious to see the final product.

John D. · 06-12-2007, 07:28 PM

Hi Brad!

I can't get the PDF file to fax - can we call in our orders for these?? I'm looking to buy the deluxe edition..

Thanks in advance!

John D.

bradsimpson · 06-13-2007, 12:30 PM

Sorry for the problems some people are having with the PDF form. You can call me at: 309-342-5800 to place an order. The Deluxes keep selling every day. I sold four on Thursday.

bradsimpson · 06-27-2007, 11:57 AM

Advance copies were Air Mailed from the printer today. Ed, Graham, & I will each be getting a Standard & Deluxe Edition. I hope to have them Friday or Saturday. All other copies should arrive in 4 to 6 weeks. I doubt they will be here in time for the K.C. Show, but its not impossible.

bradsimpson · 06-29-2007, 12:39 PM

Books Arrived!

Advance copies of the book arrived today via Air Mail. They look great! Ed, Graham, and I each got 1 Standard and 1 Deluxe Edition. I'm very anxious for Ed & Graham to see the final product.

The rest should arrive by sea freight in about 4 to six weeks. Those of you who place advance orders will have your books shipped as soon as they arrive.

bradsimpson · 07-20-2007, 11:19 AM

I just received the documents for the books that were sea freighted on July 8. The estimated time of arrival in Chicago is August 7. We should have them here in Galesburg a few days after that (if Customs doesn't hold them for inspection.)

I'll ship advance orders as soon as books arrive. There are still a few Deluxe Editions available.

Those of you who are having trouble placing orders on the web-site can call me at: 309-342-5800 to place your order.
