If by "everything" you mean "Steve's sketchbooks, and the case file, and the collectors edition of Surfin the Highway" then yes. The games themselves, the t-shirts, the soundtracks, the hats, the paperback Surfin the Highway, etc etc etc are all in print until we run out of incentive to stop printing them. Surfin the Highway paperbacks are actually having their second printing right now, for instance. In the case of the sketchbooks, Steve Purcell liked them to be a one-time thing, so we did it

Ah, my appologies then, I thought you were jsut trying to make them sell faster saying "get it now or miss out" and then a few montsh later "oh we found another 100 of this item, and we're now sellig it for $100 each, if you missed out, now's your chance!" I didn't realize Mr Purcell was the one doing it.

We've never done that. Sometimes we sell our few leftovers at cons, but always for their normal prices.

Went and ordered one against my better judgment.

Damn you Telltale and your alluring offers of entertainment!

Glad I picked this one up before it was $150+ on amazon, like a certain other sketchbook I missed is.

There was, about two months after we added it to the store, because we'd run through Steve's original printing (which was not very big to begin with). For Effigy Mound we printed more up front, knowing Steve probably wouldn't want to do a reprint.

Okay, ordered and paid for... Since I'm waiting for a shipment (including a hardback) is there anyway to actually combine both the orders since they haven't shipped yet?

Sadly we can't combine separate orders.

We can, however, cancel both orders so you can re-order the whole thing together. If you want to do that, write into support@telltalegames.com and we'll help you out.

Time to update my Amazon.com Guide... well, assuming that people will end up posting it the second sketch book on the site. I haven't checked in MONTHS.
