"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
A subscriber of theirs joked about buying multiple copies for other non-subscribers. She had her two orders cancelled, subscription cancelled, and blocked from their Facebook group.
Don't incur the wrath of NRB I guess.
Long time lurker, limited poster unfortunately but love the site, community and info shared. I'd like to be more active here.
Re NRB, caveat emptor...
I love the concept and IMO the content has been real nice in their monthly boxes, but their business sense seems lacking. I cancelled my subscription earlier this year (just too much to read and swag so I needed a breather) yet they still kept sending boxes and telling me 'oops, last one promise' and then sending another, no refunds on my credit card.
So I checked out the BBB and saw they have a D- rating.

Sorry it's not a positive post but although you guys don't know me, I feel like I know you and wanted to share with the group.
BTW, CD Pubs has an A+ rating

Thanks for the feedback. Latest from the owners. Copies for sale today!! Its after 12 here.
The emails said don't share the link, but offering to buy them for someone else is the exact same thing. Even if you joke about it, still not cool. Many will disagree, but we are not here to kiss up to the collectors. We are here to help add amazing books to your collections. In the last two updates we asked people not to share the link with anyone and what the result would be, so there should be no surprise when people are blocked.
We do this for YOU! Because we love our community, and have fun coming up with stuff and trying to get some amazing, exclusive stuff for YOU!
We started this so that we could send out great reads. The ability to get this books published how we want is just icing on the cake for us, but sadly, with how its going, it might be our last. Shame we had another title as well and have a new foreword being written for it :/
We will open up Salem's Lot tomorrow for anyone else who wants to buy.
Have a great rest of the day, and if there are any subscribers who still don't have a link to purchase a box, let me know and we will provide one.
Ok, just ordered one, but the order process was extreamly painful, and it seemed as if my order didn't go through so I kept trying, but it "appears" it went through since I got an order confirmation.
However, I am not sure I understand exactly what I ordered. It says a "special" edition. I guess I am trying to figure out if that falls in my zone of collecting or not. It sounds like there is no limitation right? So its not a limited edition, just a "special" edition, which in my mind maybe isn't that much better then a 2nd edition, which I generally don't collect.
Wanted:
'Salem's Lot Portfolio #606
Fairy Tale UK S/L
They stated the limitation was 2000.
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
They are pretty saavy in making money. I will give you a chance to buy a signed Stephen King book for $150 if you buy 3 months worth of book boxes from me only $90. If you dispute the charges you will by $17 for the dispute charges and i will never cancel your subscriptions anyway. So sign up now and dont miss out. Nevermind that i do not have an agreement from Stephen King to sign the books. and Br!an was being picky too, what materials are being used in the book? who cares. Its going to be great. Please stop looking behind the curtain. quit looking behind the curtain. UUGH.
PS if you criticize me, i am cutting off your box supply and your order. (you might get a refund). quit asking questions. ARGGG.

These guys/gals are the biggest liars out there.
The whole weirdly worded secret announcement on 4/2/2018 came across as a lame April Fools joke ...that was late.
I hope they ban me for a negative comment about them.
King was never going to sign for them.
Their lies are so transparent.
Taking a crazy, unwinnable position that any dispute results in a $17 charge is funny.
I'm disputing my charge.
I have a feeling I'll prevail. Now they can ban my IP....love to see that.
Has anyone invited them to post in this forum to explain themselves?

This is a snippet of my conversation with the owner. It wasn't a friendly chat and I won't bore you all with the long story, but I thought you may appreciate these few comments:
Me: Anyway, you want to block people who piss you off, go right ahead. Its not just me that thinks you have fucked up your reputation today, it is MANY collectors.
Him: When the collectors come out with a book that I want, then it'll be a problem. The customer is not aleays right, that's PC sensitive whiny bullshit.
Me: Hahhahahaha You mean like the awesome Suntup Misery edition put together by a collector? The edition that was good enough to actually secure Kings signature?
