    Cheers:beer:

    As long as you click the ust this book thanks"I think weĺl be ok. Grolier pursued one of my friends years ago insisting that she ordered the collection of books they sent her. She wrote to them saying that she didn and gave them so many months to collect the goods that belonged to them. She ended up getting them free anyway becasue they didn collect. I love distance selling regs!!


    interesting post. My wife has just been sent a package of books priced at just under £80. She never ordered it and we never signed for the delivery. We really dont know what to do-be honest and return it at our cost for something we didnt order, or wait for the demands-Any suggestions anyone?

    The thing with Grollier is you never stop getting hastle from them. They always ring up trying to sell you something-but i always tell them that my wife isnt in-think they might be getting suspicious now, so, send books in the hope that she buys them.:confused:
    When there's a knock at the door, why do dogs always think its for them?

    I've took up the offer of the extra books and I'll tell you why...

    I have benefited from this offer before a couple fo years ago and all I had to do was send the two books back and cancel any future books. Did it by recorded delivery and cost only a small amount. Never got bothered again.

    I have since moved, and married so I'm going to do this offer again!!!

    Just in case anyone thinks the 'How It Works' button doesn't work - you have to click just below the actual button.

    Then on the How It Works page, it says that if you sign up for the extra 6 books + bookrack, and are not happy with them, you can send back just the two trial books and keep the other 4 + bookrack. So, with the free Robinsons book & the 4 free books, you're only paying to post back the other 2 books.

    BUT THEY WILL SEND YOU 2 MORE BOOKS EVERY 4 WEEKS which have to be paid for. You have to buy 3 of these further sets before you are allowed to cancel.
