Dear friends of Budosport,

I have created this book project on a voluntary basis in addition to my actual job as a personnel developer and functional optometrist over a very long period of time. Like you, I am almost every weekend on behalf of our great sport in some dojo on the mat or at a tournament to support the new generation. So also the order taking as well as the shipping is done beside my job. Please understand that I am not a big company like Amazon etc., which has everything ready for shipment within a few hours. Therefore, it can take me sometimes the one or other day longer with the delivery. I would like to fulfill your wishes and try to ship your order as soon as possible. If someone of you needs his order urgently as a gift or as a gift of honor/price, so please indicate this in the message window directly with the order!

If you are wondering about the postage because you have heard about cheaper book shipments. Yes, up to 500g books are shipped at very reasonable rates by some providers. However, each of these volumes weighs over 2.5 kg and only the regular parcel shipping applies. Amazon & Co ship thousands of parcels per day, so they get special conditions. With my limited edition for each volume of Budo games, I therefore also only come to small parcel shipments, so that I unfortunately do not come into the benefit of these favorable price scales.

Nevertheless I am happy about every single order from you. Because it not only supports this great book project, in which more than 1,000 people have participated so far, but also gives me the opportunity to get the follow-up volumes on the way faster. Also, a limited edition takes up a tremendous amount of space and storage space is unfortunately very limited in my house. Volume III is currently in the layout phase, with two more in extended working draft. The faster the "warehouse" is cleared, the faster the next volume can be stored there until your shipment.

If a club would like to support this project and would like to appear with its club participants in one of the subsequent volumes, writes me an email to dennis.buttler (@@@) budo-seminare.de. I will then send you information. Make your club members happy to appear in a reference book and be part of our sport.

It is nice to be able to provide you with a lot of training joy. Smiling faces in your trainings are guaranteed. If anyone has any questions about the contents, please feel free to contact me.

I wish all readers a lot of fun in the next training!

Your

Dennis Buttler
