My copy arrived today, and now I've something nice to read tonight.

After I heard about Evil Hat's PDF guarantee I ordered the softcover edition of "Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies" from Sphaerenmeisters Spiele which is one of the few shops in Germany that carries products from Evil Hat and Indie Press Revolution.
Although Sphaerenmeister is a mail order business and doesn't (AFAIK) have a brick and mortar shop, I sent my receipt to Evil Hat asking for the pdf. After a few days, I received a free download link for DriveThruRPG. While I wait for my printed copy to arrive, I already have the pdf to browse. Thanks Evil Hat!
