In the mail today:
Quote:
As of 1 August, 2017, Slate & Shell will no longer be distributing print books. Our books will continue to be available in either print, through Amazon, or as e-books, through SmartGo. Starting today and continuing through the 1st, all of our books are marked down at least 50% (most more, some much more). We must receive your order by 1 August.
Please note that if you order several books, it would be wise to request priority shipping as the books have a greater chance of arriving in good condition. We cannot be responsible for the condition of packages sent via media mail.

Thanks for doing business with us.

Sincerely,
Bill Cobb and Laurie Crammond

It's telling you that after August 1st, you will not be able to order go books on slateandshell.com website anymore. Meanwhile they will have a big sale on many of their titles in print.

I'll be very interested by e-books from them.

I'm happy that they are continuing to offer their books through amazon or ebooks through the smartgo app. I'm also glad that they did a clearance sale instead of suddenly closing down like some other shops have done. I took the opportunity to buy the rest of the books that I was ever interested in getting from them if they went on sale. Wishing Laurie and Bill the best.
