I'm not the proud recipient of a number of pdf's for the Mongoose Traveller line. This is a great freakin program. I win, my local gamestore wins, and Mongoose wins! Yay!

If they're signed up for this program properly, with an approved account, they can log into the retailer area and use the controls there to send any eligible PDF to a customer who's made a purchase of the print product.

They do not offer PDF "bundles". So if I buy one of their Traveller books ate a LGS, do I get a free PDF anyways? If not, why are they even signed up as a partner? Plus when I asked my LGS about this they said I had to scan in my receipt and send it to YOU guys, and that you would then send me the free PDF code. What about Mongoose Products?

I whole-heartedly support this and will be honest in saying that this affects my desire to buy. Just ordered fiasco and am super pleased with this offering.

That's top of the list, but I haven't figured out the best way to do that yet. We can't do pure mass-emailing because of our hosting provider's spam controls (reasonable), so I'll either need to devise a RSS feed kind of thing, or a mailing list solution which retailers could subscribe to. Either way, I also need to sort out a clean way to notice when files have changed & track them. So there's some technical work to be done, which will happen when I get the time for it (but I'm also a busy freelancer and publisher, so, time's precious). Absolutely, Jean.

That would be the biggest help you could give us. How do we get update notices when new PDF’s are added here? That would be the biggest help you could give us.

I don't know what the status is of that on a product by product basis, so I've emailed them and asked them to drop by and weigh in. Titles get updated dependent on each individual publisher's schedule, so that's not something I can give a generalized answer on! Fred Hi there Marc,

It's awesome to finally be able to offer the PDFs to our customers. We actually email the files to them while they're standing at the register. It's very cool. How often do the titles get updated? I ask because Cubicle 7 is giving away PDFs with copies of The Laundry on their site. this title has gathered interest in the store but with the signs we have made advertising the publisher as one of the ones we offer PDFs from they are putting it back on the shelf since we can't offer the PDF to them. Will it be available eventually? Thanks! Marc Burnell Get Your Fun On Games This service has been a big boost to our RPG sales! It’s awesome to finally be able to offer the PDFs to our customers.
