Gushing over Magical Girls physical Manga pre-order for volumes 4 and 5 do not work
-
The links lead to failed search result on all available stores. I am mainly going for Amazon but tried the others and they give the same result.

Hi, That is intended.
We connect the ISBN search for various retailers for physical books early on. That way when the pre-order pages go live. They auto link to the storefront.
But we (our print distributor) do not start physical solicitations for print books this far in advance. That is why Volume 4 and 5 lead to not found pages. When the releases dates get closer, and teh print listings are put up. The links will auto link to the correct sales page.

@Rahul-Balaggan Thank you. Follow up question, where can I find the actual date? I cannot seem to find it, maybe I am not looking at the right place?
-
The print release date has been removed from the series page.
It may be back in the future, but we do not have the ability to manually add that release date into the site at this time.
-
@Rahul-Balaggan Is there a known reason? Is it canceled?
-
No, we just removed the feature of seeing print release dates.
Nothing beyond that we removed the feature. It was removed several months back before we even announced that Gushing Over Magical will receive a print release.

@Rahul-Balaggan Ah! ok, you scared me for a sec there lol.
Thanks, have a nice day -
@Rahul-Balaggan Helllo again, just wondering, when will the pre-order actually start for volumes 4 and up.
It's been weeks that the dead link has been up. I understand putting it up in advance so it's ready to go when the time comes but this is getting a little ridiculous.
I know you said the feature that let us know was removed but is there a way to find out? I'm getting a little tired of checking and it's always dead.
-
@Cap_Vimes I would suspect that if they knew when it was going to be, that it would be open for pre-order already. The fact that it's not most likely means that they can't nail down a date yet for some reason. Some cog or another in their production or shipping pipeline probably hasn't fallen into place yet. That's just my guess though.

Sorry, should have mentioned that is in not something that will be measured in weeks.
Volume 1 won’t be out until July. I suggest checking sometime after at least Volume 1 is out. This way you are not checking all the time.
That being said, we don’t have the date it will be listed either. The listings are handled by our print distributor, not us directly. Even if we said it will be released in X. They will still take their own time to put the listing up.
We make the connection link on our site because it would be a lot more work to individually put the link when a listing goes live.
