I have seen a lot of promises in this thread about reviews after some material has been recieved. That won't help. Good or bad, whatever comes in the mail will be something others can't buy anyhow.

"I got this really wonderful thing from Real Secrets."
"Really? What was it?"
"Can't say, but it's wonderful, top drawer!"
"How can I get it?"
"You can't. It's gone for good."
"Can you show me a video of it so I can see the effect?"
"Sorry, no."
"Oh. Well in that case, let me tell you about this really great meal I had in Tibet before the Chinese got there..."

Not necessarily so. Even if the product is fantastic, there will be those who simply are not happy with it. They will cancel their membership and, more than likely, they will be vocal about what they received. They will also be prepared to sell the material that they received and, since they no longer are associated with it, they will happily tell everyone what it is that they are buying.

Furthermore, the internet is filled with people who have names that keep their real identity a secret. Some of them will buy into this with no other intention than exposing what they get. This is what feeds their ego (like that sirbrad chap that doesn't know how to spell the word, "reek," when it is related to smell).

Just a thought.

This is simply wrong. They don't get to automatically charge everyone, only those who agree to let it go or forget to turn it off.

No, there is no "guaranteed" injection as has been explained multiple times in this thread. People can turn it off and cancel at any time. If it is a lousy program, the renewal money will be slim to none.

In general, I think it is common for subscriptions to paid for a year in advance for material that is sight-unseen.

You simply don't know this. It is your assumption. No one claims this is non-profit or a great charity but claiming money is their PRIMARY motivation is overstating it based on what we know at this time.

I am aware what each means and their spelling, I type fast and sometimes may post a similar word, or maybe I post spelling errors on purpose so that certain chaps with no life get off on correcting them, and feel important? Or maybe to give them a chance to continue impressing other old men with their cognitive dissonance, and verbose rhetoric that is pointless on a magic forum; other than a feeble attempt at disinterested superiority? But I guess some reclusive misfits need to feel like they are part of the crowd.

That's the deal. People talk. If you tell your best buddy, he will absolutely tell his best buddy. I will keep the secret absolutely.

James, Will Real Secrets prevent you from reviewing their products / effects on this forum?

That may sound great for "you" but others would simply be annoyed and not take your word for it. In fact I would not even bother reading a review telling me how great "something" was with no evidence, or description of the items. That is almost as bad as buying "something" that I do not even know what it is. That is just silly. So any reviews will be pointless, and non one will care anyway because you can't prove how bad or good the item is. Any gleaming review would just be nothing more than an attempt to showcase that you have something others don't. But if they can't see it, or know what it is the review is not credible and not worth reading.

Also Real Secrets is not reading all these posts, they only check their paypal account often.

Wish I could. I'm not that solvent, YET! If this was 2010, I would not even be watching this thread. 2010 was the worst financial year of my life.
In the holiday season, I did 2 shows! Usually in that 2 week period I will do 25-30. It was a killer. We were scraping to get the mortgage payments. Things are finally better and cash flow is coming around. I think correction is on the horizon.
