No Dark Shadows sale then There is actually a Dark Shadows sale going right now. If you use the code DSED25OFF when you check out you'll get 25% off of #1-50 in the audio book range. The sale runs until the end of this year. I've been taking advantage of it all month to fill in gaps. Thank you 😀 I’ll check it out .

Maybe they assume we already know that lol. I found out accidentally by putting the sale books in my basket and then one of the digital versions in as well. I got the warning about physical copies coming with digital versions and the relevant title was automatically removed from the basket. A shame not all the books have digital versions available . Cheers Tony That old chestnut of rights issues I presume. Could also be it's not practical time wise to create digitised copies of all of them (and we all know their to do list could fill several TARDISes). Squires Crystal and Glass Prison were written by a someone still active in Big Finish and important books to Benny's story. The older Benny books don't have digital versions (except the two that were recently re-released as ebooks). They were only produced as physical books. All of the newer Benny tie-in books come with the digital version if you buy the physical version - as acousticwolf found out. I'm pretty sure the newer books were all originally released that way. It took some time (and begging from fans ) before The Squire's Crystal and The Glass Prison were re-released as digital books. I wish the others could be released digitally, too. (Having said that, I have a complete collection of actual physical Big Finish Benny books now, though it took some time and searching to acquire them all.)

From Weather on Versimmon, the tie-in to Road Trip, the Benny titles have been physical and digital. Anything before that is physical only with the exception of Squire's Crystal and Glass Prison. I wonder if Big Finish's licence to see Doctor Who books hadn't been revoked, if they'd have digitised the Short Trips collections by now.

Who knows? It's rather frustrating, however, to be unable to obtain some of these items at a reasonable price.

So I got online before the end of the Halloween offers and bought me some Omega Factor, after listening to a free sample I got a while ago and had not listened to yet.
I got the Omega Factor novelization audiobook and Series 1.

Missed the Omega Factor when it was first on sale, so happy to get it this time. No idea when I will get a chance to listen. So much stuff out this month.

I've received two conflicting emails regarding the Wildthyme book. One is from Big Finish and states it has been shipped. When I look at my account on the Big Finish site, it also indicates that the book has been shipped. Both the email and the notification under "my orders" is dated today.
However, I got an email from Paypal yesterday stating the Big Finish refunded me the price and shipping for the Wildthyme book.
So who knows.
