I suppose for something like this you will need to hope people won't let you down... i find it hard to imagine that someone would fake it because I would never do it, but from what i have heard people do do this.

Well I know I'm keeping the emails and the invoice no doubt. Hopefully it does come with a certificate though.Come next week I suppose we'll have our definitive answer.

Guys - it comes with a COA!!!!

# 9/15 - I seriously can't believe I scored one!!

Mine just arrived. Happy to post pics if you like.

Sooooooo wrapped.

The certificate is separate to the sealed book - in a black envelope, so you can keep the book sealed if you want. However, the sticker is easy to peel off and put back on if you just want to check it out.

Uhhh...I'm seriously gonna whoop yo ass if you don't post them pics asap!

I've re-sealed my signed one for now, but here are some pics of the black envelope with the certificate and the actual white packaging. (The certificate also lists who the sigs belong to and so on)

The book is actually smaller & thinner than I was expecting - but I am far from disappointed.

ps. Does that appease you for now Mortal?

I am so pissed right now with the Irrational Store, seriously...always the same. The US takes it all...(AU is US for me now as well) I never saw a notification around this release till the really last minute. I wrote them a nice complaint about it...still awaiting a response, really curious on what excuse they will come up...
Anyway thanks for the teaser Knight...you are a lucky man!!!
I buy it from you if you really think it is to small and to thin...I have a nice spot besides my signed Bioshock art prints hehe

Thanks for the offer asiak, but I think I'll hold on to it. It should fit in nicely with my Crow Vigor, signed lithos, Rosie Gamestop bust etc.

I know it's not much consolation, but at least know that #9 will be cherished and loved by a big fan.

BUT I def think an unsigned one is still worth getting - I ordered one when I thought I'd missed out on the signed one. Still deciding what I should do with it lol - I think I may display that one and keep the signed one sealed with the certificate.

I have to say though, I kinda hope they don't release something this limited again - it would really bum me out to miss out. I remember when the crow vigor came out - it took me almost a year to track one down and convince someone to part with it.

Same here, I just happen to look at the site during my lunch break and people here were talking about it..Hence I jumped on board.. But I know what you mean I missed out on the skyrim litho second time around as it was released at 3am Australian Time and the time I heard it was back on line it was gone.. -you win some / lose some...Unless you are Mortal.. (never misses a beat)

Just got mine too - can confirm it does come with a COA. Yes the book is small - $100 for an unsigned open edition is too expensive.

Well, I did order one of the un-autographed at the end...better something than nothing...right?
I might get it signed one of those days when Ken Levine discovers his Irish roots and jumps over for a visit to his ancestors home town...hehehe

Though I have to say in favor to the Irrational store, they did deliver those prints and books in record time as I can see...
