Wizards Play Network. I can't stand how it works, but sometimes I get some promo stuff, and I usually get the books early. We jump...

So I am now told. I believe that there never was, but that it took a LONG time for that information to "trickle down". I have been...

Ooookay. Now my Distributor is saying that there is no WPN "Early Release" for it (in spite of them having it on their shelves) and they...
