Title: Gamebooklets.com going out of business
Post by: Predator Ranger on October 11, 2006, 11:27:21 AM
Hey all. For anyone interested, gamebooklets.com is a place that sells the manuals/inserts for games (mostly current gen). According to their website, they're going out of business as of the end of this year.

Just thought I'd give everyone a head's up in case there's a manual you're looking for or an insert you need that has not yet been provided here. They'll continue taking orders through Dec 31st, then closing down for good. I've ordered from them several times, and everything they have is original, no reproductions, and no GH/PC/PH unless specified. Hope this helps someone out there. And if you have a scanner, maybe you can help others in the process of helping yourself ;)

I guess there isn't a lot of money in the Game Manual industry.

Definitely send them an e-mail. They're always quick to respond, just see what they have to say about it.

Geez that's bad. He mostly likely just missed it if later orders have been delivered so it sounds a lot better than my EBAY situation.

Of course it matters.......
I am happy to hear you got your order...... I may have to hire your services, though...... :)

Actually, I am not home, so to be fair, I have to rely on what my daughter tells me.
She is calling tonight to go through our mail so I can see if it has arrived....
All I know is no packages have arrived, but it may just be a large envelope......
