I should clarify, I got a recommendation about this work from someone I trust.
When I said I had heard whispers of this man's work over the years, I intended to type 'over the year' - meaning this year. I'm still happy I made the purchase, but perhaps the masses should wait for a review. It's not yet printed. |

Derren and Andy openly praising his work is enough for me. I'm also going to trust entity's opinion. I'll be purchasing a copy for myself tomorrow afternoon.

No - just sounds like an attempt to stop more people buying the book.

Or maybe a cry out against this thread's organized and deliberate hype created by people that are involved in the production of the product or else are clearly friends with the person(s) behind it.
Or maybe that's fine, and it's a protest at the additional hype from a position of ignorance that others are contributing. "I don't know anything about parachutes, but it Andy Nyman says I don't need one, then I'm jumping without it.) One big magic circle jerk. |

Or maybe some people just like to be controversial, eh Kriskraze?

Maybe some people are hyping it because they like the content and thinking behind the routines. You can't please everyone I guess. There really are only two choices, buy it or not. I love that there is controversy already with it, I never feel let down by this group of wonderful people. Happy Christ's Birthday to you all and hope you have a cheerful and wonderful 2008. |

Yes. Don't question. Just buy it.
Or don't. But please, no questions. |

Forgive my questioning Patient One, but is that sarcasm?
I think asking questions is fine, but giving cynical and unfounded answers deserves a good spanking with a wet slipper.

Not saying don't question it. If you have a problem with buying it before it is released then wait until someone writes a review about it and then buy it, or not, based on that. Or wait until a friend reads it and tells you what it is like. Buy it based on recommendations of people in the business or buy it because you like the sound of it.
Some people take the option to rant about it negatively on a forum, some even post that they are not buying it. These are not based on opinions of the content of the book. Personally, I am not bothered either way, I like the website and the stuff that I have read and have used in intimate settings. Being annoyed at marketing is ridiculous, it is the way of the commercial world. I am sure that the people bemoaning the practice use it themselves in their business as mentalists getting more work. If they are not self-employed then their employer will use those tactics, which ultimately pays their wages and finally their bills and makes them no better. We seem to be seeing this kind of negativity towards marketing with virtually everything new in this business. I believe that David Meade actually posted because he was excited about it and not because he has any involvement. I am surreptitiously (or not) marketing my web design services so I am just as bad! I am not as concerned about HC selling any of his books as I am about getting more work to pay my bills. |
