Curse

I've just picked up my CE of Nightfall and flipping through the pages of the artbook I discovered that some of them were flipped about so they were upsidedown in the book - 10 or so pages around page thirty. My boyfriend's copy had the same issue.

This is the Eu edition purchased in Australia. I'm not too sure what I'm going to do about it yet but I thought I'd let y'all know so you can check yours too.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

Is it also full of SF concept art like that last one?

What I saw I liked (apart from the upsidedown thing

). It looked like it was mostly Nightfall stuff to me.

Y'think?

Anyways I've raised a support request through playNC asking for replacements and I'll go from there.

It's starting to sound like it's only a few copies which have been affected.

Hm I checked my 3 and they are fine but I dunno where boyf put his 2 so I can't check them. Hope they replace them for you. :S

I used to work in a factory that manufactured books. Sometimes the sheets(usually 12-36pages) can get loaded on the conveyor improperly. Resulting in exactly what you have, and since the inspectors don't check every book, they sometimes get through. I'm assuming you and your boyfriend bought your copies at the same place and together, explaining why they're both goofy. Probably a bail of sheets got loaded backwards or upside-down as it is.

I'm also in agreement with Horseman, it will probably be worth more than the regular ones in the years to come just because there is less of them out there.

I have the same trouble with my Nightfall art book.
What a shame... it was the item in the Collector Edition I was the most interested by. And it's not a "nice" booklet, just something poorly assembled with a lot of pages upside down in the middle. I'm really deceipted...

kinda sucks but look on the bright side it is worth money now because it is a mistake.

Mistakes are always worth something to some one. Collectors go figure.

I checked my art book (America) and it looked fine to me.

Zolderick · Nov 05, 2006, 07:18 AM // 07:18

Yeah, it'll be worth more. I've seen things like this happen to other types of items (cards, other collectables, etc.) and they always go up in price because they're different, and people like things that are unique.

Nice find. Hopefully flipping the book upside down for a few pages isn't going to be too much of a hassle.
