Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

I believe though I will have to set my house up like an Indiana Jones film. If anyone touches the flippin book then they will have big balls rolling towards them and darts from well placed spears heading their way.......

Haha, yes, I like this idea. Might have to do that too.
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

I've never owned a book that heavy. Where do you put such a thing :eek:
I still haven't decided whether I want it or not...
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

and everyone thinks the book is expensive.

List of things must get before book arrives;

Sturdy coffee table.
glass case to cover coffee table
tasteful lighting
security alarms
bodyguards
cctv around home
Indiana Jones interior decorator
Fake Opus book, just to put them off scent
guard dogs
need to give up job so can watch book 24/7 as do not trust cctv or bodyguards

Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

Sorry for my confusion, but do you have to pay it when pre-booking or do you pay it afterwards when the book is delivered?

Seems like the ultimate MJ book. I wonder if there are pesonal writings from MJ himself in it?

The above quote is from an email I received back from Opus about the book, so it is fact.

Hope this helps anyone.
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

I just ordered it - I hope it's good and that the profits go as per Michael's instructions in his will.

It says the special price available to Oct 30th!? Is this absolutely official?? Why is this so confusing :scratch:

I just ordered it - I hope it's good and that the profits go as per Michael's instructions in his will.
Yeah I hope that too. Is there any statement where the profits go?
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

2/ The book will be available until Christmas at the very least

wow this is not so long time
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

I was told over the phone the special price would be until 30th September, I called on the day the book was announced.

Nevertheless, I'm glad I ordered one already, if it is true that the special price is extended to 30th October I may buy another.

My post above is an email I received from Opus themselves. I sent them an email with the questions and the points are their answers.

Ha ha, definitely!

I want it too but it's the worst time ever... and after that 300 something? That's crazy. Maybe they're hyping the preorder thing to get more ppl interested but won't raise the price? One can dream LOL.

I already told my hubby I want it for Christmas but we can't really afford it...:doh:
 
Re: 'Official Michael Jackson Opus'(BooK) Will Pop With Photos, Tributes

I just pre-ordered it. It is pricey for me but since I will be getting hold of it in Dec, I just consider this as an expensive x'mas present for myself.
