THE INSTRUCTIONS:
“Back in December I sent the guy who manages the website information about 3 forthcoming signed hardcovers and asked him to get them onto the website by early January so that people could start ordering them in advance, but he has been having health issues and isn’t sure when he’ll get the books listed.
“The three signed books are
1) Demon Daughter by Lois McMaster Bujold ($45.00, signed numbered tipped-in signature page), the latest in the Penric series, which we expected to receive around the end of January but we received last Monday (though we received fewer than we ordered);
2) Heart of the Mountain by Larry Correia ($30.00, signed bookplate, final volume of the Saga of the Forgotten Warrior series) which we expect to receive around the first of February;
3) Diviner’s Bow by Sharon Lee & Steve Miller ($28.00, signed bookplate signed by Sharon Lee, Liaden Universe #27) which we expect to receive at the end of March.
“Fortunately, we set up a work-around many years ago for people to securely pass along their credit card information when the regular system of ordering through the website doesn’t work:
“Go to UncleHugo.com
Click “Browse Our Merchandise” on the upper left corner of the home page
On the next page, click “Submit Credit Card Information”
On the next page, “Add to Cart” the imaginary item priced at $4.00
Checkout (as a guest — the shopping basket’s software for setting up an account with password is full of bugs and seldom works correctly)
When the shopping basket forwards your “imaginary” order to me, I’ll match it up with your real order and be able to process the real order. (This requires that you send an e-mail telling me what your real order is.)”
