I pre-ordered on Amazon and got this in an e-mail on 7/29/10:

"Hello from Amazon.com.

We're writing about the order you placed on xxx. Unfortunately, the release date for the item(s) listed below has changed, and we need to provide you with a new delivery estimate based on the new release date:

  Richard Baker, Bruce R. Cordell "Dark Sun Creature Catalog (4th Edition D&D)"
    Estimated arrival date: September 14 2010 - September 20 2010

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this delay."

The new Amazon release date is August 31st. Anyone else getting a delay? Is this an delay the same for all book sellers or just Amazon?

Just Amazon.  Note that Wizards still has all of the Dark Sun books plus Psionic Power on track for an August 17th official release.  I would not be surprised to see these books in premier game stores as early as next weekend.

Just a few posts down we discussed this. The amount of delay is inconsistent - some people are delayed a little over a week, some a month, and we've got numerous reports that the finished books are in some peoples' hands and will be ready for those who go to GenCon.

Ack! I just didn't scroll down enough to see that this was being discussed. I panicked and posted too fast. If a moderator wants to delete this post please do!
