What is going on with Amazon's listing for the preorder? Seems like it's been hijacked by a vendor with terrible ratings offering the unreleased book at a high markup, with no way to preorder from Amazon at the correct price.
- fabiensanglard 4y agoSame issue with my preorder on Amazon. Placed on July 2 but now it states that the item has been delayed. I am being asked to approve of it?!
- justin66 4y agoI received the same thing. I cancelled it and ordered on the Microsoft Press store, where there's currently a discount that makes the book cheaper than Amazon. Somewhat unusual, that.
- localhost 4y agoI preordered directly from the publisher a couple of months ago and it arrived this week. Looks like you still can order from them today: https://www.microsoftpressstore.com/store/code-the-hidden-language-of-computer-hardware-and-software-9780137909100 https://www.microsoftpressstore.com/store/code-the-hidden-la...
- bena 4y agoSame. Although I nearly thought I was scammed when I saw the charge on my credit card because I had completely forgotten about it. That and the charge comes from AWL*PEARSON. But then I got an email telling me it shipped, I put 2 and 2 together, then the book arrived a whole day earlier than estimated.
- blinkingled 4y agoI pre-ordered using MS Press as well - you get the ebooks/PDF for free (instant download while you wait for the dead tree version to arrive) when you order the hard copy and ebook bundle.
- dom96 4y agoJust did the same, seems they offer international shipping too. It does cost $9 though (but hey, at least I won't have to wait until Nov 24th).
