    I got the shipping notification today too, but mine was actually delivered on 6/25

    Yeah I have no intention of switching away from the paper. Unless something changes with how much the paper costs.

    My vote (I know, this is not a democracy but I can try) is to stick with the paper, Works great and is so much better to deal with!

    But they're probably a bit pricier than the ol' reliable kraft paper.

    Not yet. I believe the cases for those are still in production. I don't think we have a estimated completion date yet.
    Thanks, Dan.
    I'm sure the end result will be worth the wait!

    Hey Dan- I like that you have switched from using packing peanuts to paper. It is much easier to recycle.

    I don't know how I missed these posts. Sorry about that. But basically we shipped it via FedEx, but didn't change the shipping method in our order management software. So the software just assumed the tracking number it was given was for USPS. On older orders where it makes sense to do so we're switching people to FedEx international.

    But now I do have a question: when I received my shipping notice for the Night Shift gift, it looked as if USPS was going to take care of the shipping process. But that link never worked - and one or two days later FedEx had taken over and the book was here (Europe) in record time. Very, very happy with FedEx.
    But now, again it seems as if the numbered Artist Edition will be shipped via MIVA (MIVA??? I have NO idea) USPS International Priority. Unless this will change again to FedEx....???

    Dan.....anyone in Europe who already received their AE - will this be a FedEx shipment??? Really hope it will be.

    Well......happy to report I received a FedEx shipping notice as well......via a text message sent to my phone.
    But then - why a USPS notification by e-mail as well???
