Harrington\'s new book - Cancelled on Amazon?????
 
Mason,

A few weeks ago, I pre-ordered Harrington's book on Amazon and today, I got an email from Amazon.ca that my order has been cancelled due to the fact that the book will no longer be released!

Do you have any knowledge about this or why it happened? I thought the book has already been shipped by now? What is going on?

Here is the exact message from Amazon:

Greetings from Amazon.ca!

We're sorry to report the release of the following item has
been cancelled:

Dan Harrington (Author), Bill Robertie (Author) "Harrington On Hold
'em: Expert Strategy For No Limit Tournaments"

Although we'd expected to be able to send this item to you, we've since
found it won't be released after all. Please accept our sincerest
apologies for any inconvenience we've caused you.

We've cancelled this item from your order.

Please note, if you took advantage of a promotional offer when placing
this order, this cancellation can affect your order's eligibility for
that offer. To view the current status and the costs associated with
your order, please visit the Your Account page at
http://www.amazon.ca/your-account.

Your credit card will not be charged for this item, because you only
pay
for items when we ship them to you.

Please note: This e-mail was sent from a notification-only address
that cannot accept incoming e-mail. Please do not reply to this
message.

Thanks for shopping at Amazon.ca - we hope to see you again!

Hi A77:

We have already received three seperate orders for the book from Amazon. The first two orders have been shipped and the third order will go out tomorrow.

So I don't understand why you got the message you did.

Best wishes,

Mason

Mason,

I rechecked it and it looks like it is not available on Amazon.ca which is odd b/c I have ordered virtually all of my twoplustwo books from there including SSH.

Here is the link to Amazon.ca stating that it is not available..I guess I will order it from Amazon.com or Conjelco.

Hi avatar77:

I don't know the answer. My guess is that in the not too distant future this will change because the book is certainly available.

Best wishes,
Mason

From amazon.ca:

THIS TITLE IS CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE.

But it says right below it:
[ QUOTE ]
This item will arrive after Dec. 24.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm sure the book will be for sale on that site very soon.

i got the same email as avatar77. my order was cancelled. the crappy thing is i ordered it with Improve Your Poker which put my order over $39 for free shipping. then they cancelled HoH but shipped out the other one and charged me for shipping because now the order was under $39. however i emailed them and they gave me a refund.

I'd really like to get my hands on HoH. i'd appreciate any updates on this situation.

The guys at Amazon.ca are a bunch of schmucks! I emailed Amazon and apparently the cancellation was done in error because it is now available on the site.

I re-ordered it on Dec. 23rd and got an email on Dec. 24th to notifiy me that my order has been shipped.

I should be receiving it soon and will give you guys an update if I do receive it. I am just pissed off because I had to order another book to save on shipping again (they filled my original order without HOH the first time).

Anyway, I look forward to getting the book.

Just ordered mine from amazon.ca as well. Next time you want to order from them, go to this site first and pick up a $5 off coupon code.

They always seem to have a bunch floating around.

they are now going to ship out HoH with free shipping as well. i had to order it again separately and thought about using a $5 off coupon but decided not to bother. i already used one and didn't feel like using another. they've given me great customer service. although maybe it would have been fair for my time.
