Has this series been dropped by Dark Horse? Just wondered becuase the fourth volume was suppossed to be out but my pre-order at Chapters didn't come in and when I check on the item to just order it. . . it says unavailable.
Just wondered if the series was dropped or if the volume was delayed.

Doesn't look like it. There might have been a shipping issue at your store. Amazon and Rightstuf both have volume 4 available, Rightstuf even has volume 5 on pre-order. You might want to check back with your store about that.

I see. Hm, so its just Canada sucks. (man we always get screwed and have stuff pushed back)
Well I checked Amazon.ca and it still just has VOl. 4 for pre-order saying its not out yet. WTH?
Anyway, maybe I'll just go to Amazon.com

To fighterholic:
No offense, but when did you see this? Because I want this title too. I've checked Amazon, Overstock, Animecornerstore, justmanga, bordersstores, bn, and rightstuf. All of them do not have this volume available for purchase. Amazon, Overstock, and bordersstores all list the title as a pre-order still despite a release date of 11/12/08. Well okay, overstock says the book will ship in 12/2008. Animercornerstore states that the new release date is 12/3/08. BN just lists the title as unavailable. And justmanga just doesn't list it at all. (Even Dark Horse's online book seller TFAW.com has it listed for preorder.)
To Super_Vegeta:
I'm presuming that like many other publishers Dark Horse is just delaying the release on many of its titles. Your best bet to just keep watching the websites - I am. I have a feeling that this is going to happen a lot with a lot of other titles. It's already appeared at Tokyopop as well - not that there is much comfort in that.
Also I'm guessing that you live in Canada (from your last post). So no it's not that Canada sucks - it is an unreliable/delayed release date.

Yeah I'm from Canada, and we tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to specialty stuff. Just take a look at the Canadian amazon site. Search something on the US site then on the canadian site, you'll get way less hits. Or at least thats what it seems like to me. Or perhaps I was just being bitter because of the delay.
Anyway I'm cool if its just a delay, although that still sucks. Anyway thanks for the heads-up. I'll just keep waiting then. (Not that I have any other choice.
Also as a side note Sony is taking their sweet time releasing the DVDs for the Blood+ anime. Seriously where the hell is the part 2 boxset?

Not to beat a dead horse but . . .
Justmanga informed me that they have Blood + 4 in stock. I just ordered it online. I haven't checked the other sites. I think it may finally be released.

Hm, thanks. I just checked Amazon.ca AND chapter's website. Amazon has vol 4 available to order and apparently Chapters/Coles has the manga in stock in the warehouse.
That said, my order still has not come in.
Maybe I'll go down to the store and see if I can't get them to hurry it up. I mean my pre-order was only suppossed to be in a month ago.
