(anyway, fingers crossed for a bigger announcement today!)
AMEN !!!!
Just got the newsletter, the announcement we're getting this week is... there is an exclusive announcement next week in the newsletter. Those of you that predicted a sale are probably right. I think Big Finish needs to learn that when they hype up announcements we expect something big.

I can’t say why I know at this point, and I don’t know what the specific announcement is, but from the sounds of it it was pushed back a week.

I don't think that's entirely fair... they said not to make this week the week to miss out on signing up for the newsletter, which would make sense if the news is coming next week. Suggests we'll probably hear Monday.

Knowing BF, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be a sale in the end. But we'll have to wait and see I guess. They've already done this sort of thing in the past though.

I don't think that's entirely fair... they said not to make this week the week to miss out on signing up for the newsletter, which would make sense if the news is coming next week. Suggests we'll probably hear Monday. The wording was "don't let this week be the week you regret it" which to me reads as: this week you will regret not signing up. Granted they could operate (as some people do) that Sunday is the start of a new week and therefore within a week of the original tweet so both pieces of info anout this are correct its a tad silly in the newsletter they remind you to make sure you're subscribed to it. I get that they're probably wanting to people to make sure they see the newsletter, but again another odd choice of language. I'm going to throw my hat in the ring here and guess Masterdoctor is right - if it's a sale as we seem to expect the reason to push it back would be if its primarily a CD sale and they need to make sure they have the staff avaliable to dispatch orders. We also haven't the Q2 end of the line announcements so I think it'll be a clearance sale (just a guess though as I said).

Yeah, I still remember the time they talked about a newsletter of importantance and it turned out to be a Thunderbirds sale...

Or to really stretch the boundaries... They haven't received a "signature on the dotted line" for someone.. Devils Advocate here..
(Marketing/Communication still needs to be worked on IMHO)

Worth mentioning what looks like the new artwork for the Sirens Of Time Redux cover can be seen on page 3 of the Vortex.

Just received the latest newsletter - does anyone else feel like the quality of these has gone down hill?
I mean, they were never incredible but at least they would show the full cover art and the font size looked right.
The other thing is that the last month or so they always seem to arrive at a random time. They don't correspond with news releases on social media or the BF website. You'll have a new set come out one day and then two days later the newsletter will finally come out. Just seems odd.

Newsletter subscribers get presale links, guessing this was the reason Big Finish was telling people to make sure they were subscribed to the newsletter (and in my opnion a great desicion to ensure fans get tickets)

Nice to see the header on the BF Twitter account is updated to reflect "The Stuff Of Legend" 8th Doctor story just announced.
