Through what kind of dark twisted magics have you managed to order something that isn't on sale anywhere that I can see? Esp when the only thing GW is selling are digital or Primaris?
Some FLGSs will take orders for things announced but not yet up for pre-order - typically things like FFG announcing new X-Wing ships that are coming in 6 months  I assume that's what they're referring to.

So they do - and due on my birthday as well! I wonder if Amazon already has them sitting in a warehouse or if they're hoping things will have gotten better by June.

As a Dakka Mod I have special Obsidian-Level Access to a members only site called Amazon.
You probably haven't heard of it.

EDIT-Looking again it seems there was a Book 3 that missed, so hey, new content! Besides those early 2000s BL books have some awful binding and feel like they'll fall apart if I breath too hard.

Such a strange place! They even use some kind of pretend money like $ instead of proper £

A lot of Amazon pre-orders just use whatever date they find/get sent/guess - I believe the next Game of Thrones has had - quite a lot of dates on Amazon.

I book I wanted was cancelled but instead of delisting it Amazon just changed the date to 2035. Still have the order open, maybe it'll be a nice retirement present.

Agreed.
The whole saying of “I’m not angry, just disappointed” has been a thing forever.
Kind of shows there alone that they are entirely different emotions.

Disappointment is not an emotion.
Disappointment is an event when expectations aren't met. You can have an emotional reaction to that, such as being sad, happy or angry.

Psychologists would disagree with your definition, SSU - take this article from Psychology Today as an example.

Psychologists aren't scientists, just philosophers and literary critics playing dress up.
If it ain't neurology it's crap!

Meh.. and there I was thinking;
Fear leads to Anger,
Anger leads to Hate,
Hate leads to Cow Elves Disappointment
Or something.
