The Palladium Open House can SAVE you money
After talking to a couple of fan friends coming to the Palladium Open House (POH), I came to realize that the POH can actually save some people money.
Both gents are in a bit of a cash bind. However, both decided they just can NOT miss the Open House and are coming Hell or high water. They are doing many of the cash saving things we have talked about before – coming down with friends, sharing a room to reduce expenses, etc., but they both talked about something else I hadn't thought of.
One plans to “load up” on a bunch of books he’s been planning to get. The other is planning on getting all the new releases from this year (5-6 titles by then). And a third pal, flying in from California, plans on doing likewise.
ALL of them are planning to hold off buying books now and get them at the Open House to avoid shipping costs. That’s smart and especially easy for those driving and have space in the trunk. But even my pal flying in from California says he’s leaving half his suitcase empty to fill it with books to bring back home with him.
Palladium counts on daily online sales and the sale of new product, (which have been an up and down rollercoaster ride these past few weeks
), but if you are coming to the POH anyway, it may be a smart move to wait and buy books there and bring them back with you to avoid shipping. That’s a savings of something like $3-$7 a book depending on how you would have it shipped. That starts to add up fast when you are talking 5 or more titles. Plus books acquired at the POH can be signed by me and a few dozen other Palladium creators. Do it.
In addition, Palladium will have a number of out of print titles, Wujcik owned books, proofreader copies, prints, art and other items available.
In these tough economic times, I just wanted to offer another way to save you some cash. I hope it helps. And speaking of savings, don't forget The Rifter® Special Subscription offer ends in a few weeks. Take advantage of the savings and the free gift.

While I have your ear, FYI Dyval is nearly ready and Wayne starts laying out tomorrow.
