go . . .

Somedays, I think that all my money should just get signed over to Eisenbrauns . . .

The good: I may not have to pay extra for that second suitcase I was planning on bringing . . .

The bad: The temptation to now file any money spent on this sale as "October" and therefore make the claim to my wife that my "SBL money" is still intact . . .

The good: I actually don't have too much to get this year . . .

The bad: At least one volume is a Harrasowitz . . .

The good: Like James says, no Boston sales tax . . .

The bad: In connection with the above "bad," this is only Eisenbrauns . . .

BookNews from Eisenbrauns (from James)

Eisenbrauns has two great deals going on right now and running through the end of October. One is for folks who are planning to attend ASOR or SBL in Boston this year; the other is for those of you who can't make it. The odd thing is... it's the same deal: ASOR/SBL in October!

No need to pay Boston's sales tax, no waiting in line, no worrying about availability or having to elbow your way through colleagues to be sure that you get that book you dearly wanted, plus no shipping costs (for domestic orders over $99.00). Browse our virtual booth and get ASOR/SBL in-booth pricing, but only until October 31.

The fine print:
1. This sale includes forthcoming Eisenbrauns titles! We will hold
any order that includes a book that will be published between now and November 1 until November 1, so that your order can all be shipped together. (Of course, your credit card will never be charged until the books are invoiced and shipped.)

2. The prices on this sale are in-booth prices; these prices are
the very best that will be available on these books! Prices will not be lower either in-booth or after the meetings. Order form prices will be 10% higher than in-booth prices on Eisenbrauns titles.
3. We think we've included every book that will be in the booth,
plus some extras!

4. No returns will be permitted on this sale.

5. Sale absolutely ends October 31; NO late orders will be
accepted.

Of course, we still hope that you will come by booths 536-541 in Boston, at the SBL, or by the tables at ASOR, to say "hi," chat a bit, and register for the SBL gift certificate; but we hope that making this sale available now will make your time at the meetings in Boston easier and more enjoyable!
