I haven't heard any news from Vincent latley on the cells...
He's been very busy just trying to get the DVD itself put out. I'm sure he'll make an announcent here or through www.Newsaskew.com about the cells and of course when the DVD will come out...

: I ordered ABP back on 01/00,so I could be one the first 1,000.Just got the f*cking e-mail yesterday.No one at express.com will return e-mails about this and if you call them,they have a recording to e-mail them.I just wish Vincent would pull the plug on the deal with those lying a$$holes and put up an order buttton on the pre-order page at the Stash.I have bought almost everything they have there,and would rather buy it from the Stash anyway.I only pr-ordered it from express because they promised extras of a film cell and Kev's signature with Vincent's.The stash just came with Vincent's signature and no pre-order date.I talked to Bryan at the Stash a while back about this.I had called express about the finacial trouble and was told everthing was A O.K. and that my order was in place and would arrive sometime in May.I e-mailed Bryan and asked about would the stash take up express's orders and what might happen.He had this to say:
: "They may still be in operation but I know they owe the distributor of 'A
: Better Place' loads of money and won't get the copies they ordered unless
: they pay up.
: We can't honor orders from express simply because to trade info from their
: database to ours would be very complicated (not to mention highly illegal)
: You kind of have to play it by ear and keep in touch with them to find out
: what's going on."
: Then I got this on the Askewboard about it and Walt Flanagan's Dog added this.
: "At V2K he said that he still has all the cell's in his room and that they still need to pay for the DVD's.He also said "...don't buy it from Express. They are going out of business..." (Paraphrase, I didn't tape him or anything, I just remember because, I ordered from them too. I have since cancelled my order and will just
: wait and see what happens."
: F*CK EXPRESS.COM!
