Save your money

I saw an advertisement on BBO by a company called New England Bridge which sells downloadable bridge documents (presumably PDFs). While nothing is wrong with this itself, I feel annoyed and decided to save your money by listing some reasons you should NOT buy from them.

First, they are full of sales buzzwords, like buy two, get one free, 10% off everything with Gold membership and so on, enough to make me puke.

Then the price. 1 to 9 pages documents - from $8-$20. Guys, are you for real? A good, printed bridge book ( ~ 200 pages) is 10-15$.

It's unclear who is the author of those documents. I may eventually give it a try provided they are written by Mike Lawrence, Eddie Kantar, Larry Cohen or other famous bridge champion, but not if they are by JoeDoe.

The excuse on why you need give a credit card number to receive a free document is completely hilarious and they have no less than ONE item in free documents page.

So, do yourself a favor and spend your money on quality bridge books from: amazon.com, baronbarclay.com, bridgeshop.com, postfree.cc or your local dealer.
