Please, can you ship the books in boxes? If using a soft mailing envelope the corners will be bent and that is NO NO

Re: How will the books be shipped?
All pre-orders placed prior to April 1 will be shipped directly from the printer in boxes. The printer is actually custom-manufacturing shipping boxes that are the right dimensions to ship the book. (That's one of the reasons there is a pre-order deadline -- they need time to make the boxes.) The box just looks like, well, a box, but you can't buy these boxes in stores.

I bet they're classic boxes.

As long as they are happy customers who cares if they are fruit, shore care product or even shoggoths!jeff wrote:Who cares if some brown, fuzzy fruit is happy?
