Bantayan, in March 2025
Dear friends,
Alas, the Kickstarter campaign to print a second, DELUXE, expanded edition of my book with the Swedish Dracula drawings did not reach its goal. The remaining copies of the first edition
are still available, though, and can be ordered here directly by writing me a message through the message form below. For a description of the book, see the left column of this website.
To avoid monthly storage costs in Shenzhen (China), I had all remaining copies shipped to Bantayan Island, Philippines, and they will be dispatched to you directly from here. Please, expect some
higher shipping costs and/or longer delivery times compared to shipping from China.
Because of the manual handling of orders, I had to raise the price, but ordering multiple copies at once will come with significant discounts (see
below).
-
Price for one physical copy of the first edition plus a PDF of my updated introduction essay for the second edition that remained unfunded: 50
USD.
-
Price for one physical copy of the first edition, SIGNED BY BOTH DACRE STOKER AND ME, + a PDF of the updated, illustrated introduction essay (Hans
de Roos) + PDF of Dacre's preface for the second edition that remained unfunded: 70 USD.
Of course, you can order multiple copies, and any combination of signed and unsigned copies. The PDF will be emailed only once, however.
DISCOUNTS FOR ORDERING MULTIPLE COPIES:
2 copies: 20 %
3 copies: 30 %
4 copies: 40 %
5 -10 copies: 50 %
11-20 copies: 60 %
20-50 copies: 70 %
51 copies or more: 80 %!!
The mass order discounts are interesting for resellers, as you can charge a higher price to your clients.

-
First come, first served.

you want to start a free-handed
payment to my Paypal account. Do not forget to message me your name, the nature of your order (how many copies, signed or unsigned), your complete shipping address and your phone
number (required for courier delivery)!
You can also pay by bank transfer. In your order message, please add the name that will appear in the bank statement, in addition to your shipping name,
and tell me whether you want to pay in USD or EUR.
Alas, I cannot process credit card payments, but if you opt for PayPal payment, you can pay with credit card via PayPal.
As an alternative to Paypal, you can open a free WISE account to save lots of money on all your international money transfers! While banks may take up to 10% for currency conversions by giving
you bad exchange rates, WISE charges on average 0.7% using the interbank exchange rate. If you click this link, your first transaction will be for free! If you want to use WISE, please send me a short message through the contact form, so
that I can give you my bank details.
TIP: If you have an US$ account, pay in $, if you have a Euro account, pay in Euro, to avoid currency conversion costs. If your account is in
another currency, and you make several international money transfers each year, you might want to consider a WISE account.
