Infact, go to Amazon right now and it'll list shelf dates months in advance. The reason you don't see books ordered from the site is because they don't do first-party distribution.As for Hunter: the Vigil, the only reason I knew the shelf date for that book is because my fiance works at the gaming outlet I mentioned in my opening post. And now that you mention it, we spent almost half an hour with the managers trying to figure out whether to shelf the product or not, because no one was sure of the release date (despite the excellent release content we recieved, including a promotional poster, also dateless). We actually had to call the distributor to figure out if to shelf the product or not. They told the store that they could, because the shelf date was the day before.Which was odd, because the posters that were recieved with the Vigil books were "Coming Soon" posters.And I hold to the fact that White Wolf is very successful, because they have a core fanbase that buy their books (quite often for the sake of just reading them). This will probably support the company as long as they continue releasing supplements every month or so.-IV</blockquote>
