I've had nothing but horrible experiences with Amazon and RPG books, I do not recommend them at all. The only option I have to get Anima is a priority courier (+35 USD for delivery). I tried several shops in UK but their delivery was terrible, book angles were smashed during transport. Thus I have two Gaia books in damaged condition. |

Well FRP Games has Arcana Exxet est May, but I don't know if that will help you in the UK. I also shop Sci-Fi Genre who don't list dates for Arcana Exxet but they are also US based and tend to get stuff a week or two later then others. I've never had a shipping problem with either but then again I'm US based. -ape2020 |

I tried several shops in UK but their delivery was terrible, book angles were smashed during transport. Thus I have two Gaia books in damaged condition. By horrible experience, I meant, every time I ordered an RPG book from them it just never arrived. Every time the delivery date rolled around, the book was nowhere to be seen, and the delivery date was pushed back another month. After having my crap routinely pushed back by 3 months only to not get it, ever, I've given up on Amazon and rpg books. This is why I say take the Amazon ETA with a grain of salt, because not only is it probably not true (for Amazon), if you order it from Amazon, there is a good chance that it won't arrive until much later than that, or not at all. |

Odd, I've never had any trouble with Amazon for RPG books. That said, I've never ordered a book that wasn't already out yet from them. All other pre-orders (mostly video games) have come through without a hitch. Hmm.

That sounds pretty much like every time I've ordered a RPG book from Amazon UK, and doubly so for Anima books. Ended up getting Those Who Walked Amongst Us from America via an Ebay seller, still managed to arrive a week before any UK sellers got it (and they were still way ahead of Amazon by at least a month). |

Well, I used courier shipping, so the delivery was about 3-5 business days. However if they don't manage to get Arcana Exxet before FRP, then.. FRP also have courier 3-5 days delivery option.
If I have spare money may be I'd even try to order Gaia from them.

The odd EBay seller aside, FRPGames and Noble Knight are normally the best way to get Anima books as early as possible. As an international buyer, I find Noble Knight considerably better than FRPGames in terms of customer service, speed and cost. FRPGames is still pretty good though.
I am pretty sure the release month for Arcana Exxet from those two stores will be mid to late June. FRPGames just rolls back its release dates if they aren't met, so May is unlikely.

Nah, the book is for sure hitting in May, as FFG has announced week ago that it was on the boat. which means it be available in stores within 4 to 6 weeks. (4-6 weeks of boat time, -1 week of having already been on the boat, +1 more week of shipping from the warehouse) I have never in all of FFG history seen a product get delayed once it got past the printer part. |
