No idea
Why do you need to make a few contacts?
The tankard is not even for sale in the physical store
It is just a decoration piece

Strange about the tankard. Ubisoft is usually very bloodthirsty for our wallets so wouldn't it be in their best interest to stock all the bonuses in their stores?

as far as my understanding goes
The pre order bonuses typically are sourced and chosen by the stores and then approved by the publisher

So in this case the coin purse or spyglass would have been sourced and decided upon by the retailer and then UBisoft Czech or UBisoft Italy would say yes that's OK

But it is looking ever more like that is nit the case
With the global use of steel books and the posters

We have Ubisoft Czech for consoles ( its together with Nintendo, Swuare Enix etc and called Conquest) and then Distributor for PC- Playman. These who gave us Renesance, Gift editions and teeth or purses.

You beat me to it,lol. I tried to tell one seller on fleabay Ubiworkshop will be selling them for $20. They didnt believe me,said i was just trying to rip them off,lower the price etc & then said if Ubiworkshop does sell them for $20 i will give you mine for free. So far nothing but silence from the seller since i sent them the link,dont think i going to see any freebie

Probably quite a few. Since not many are either aware of where to look or where they may be available you will still get people trying to sell for a profit. I know of someone whos re-listed theres for $70. Admittingly first price was $150 but,there still asking 3 times the rrp & i bet theres some sucker out there who will buy it thinking its a bargain as its cheaper than they have been previously

Love to order one but i have two problems. First is do i order it before they run out if they are limited in supply. The second is ordering the damn thing then a week later they get something else i want & i have to pay again for shipping to me. Decisions,decisions. Be easier if i knew/know how many journals they have & if they are a limited amount

Did you ever manage to cancel the journal you bought in a moment of madness???

I managed to cancel my purchase for 152.50 is yes
I told the seller the item was not as described but the only way for me to tell eBay this was to pay for it and receive it and then ask for a refund
Which I was not willing to do

And I was going to hold off on ordering the journals as I know the flag will be released soon but i didn't want to miss out on anything else
And there flags and big obscure items don't generally sell out
People are more interested in art prints and tee shirts,

I will post this in a few places so everyone who needs to sees it
The flag at comic con is a early release only
It will be available later on, on store.UbiWorkshop.com

Million dollar question is wether the flag is the same one that was a pre-order bonus item from Mighty Ape or not

No point in getting Ubiworkshop version if they are the same
