I would certainly think twice about trusting you with my traffic/money since it's clear you have little regard for your fellow site owners/webmasters.

This is from the DVDSFORABUCK website:
"As part of your monthly membership fee of $34.95, you will receive 2 selection credits for FREE DVDs every month, with FREE shipping!
Also, if you want the Adult DVD Special Selection, do nothing, it will be sent automatically. You will always have at least 10 days to decide. If you ever receive an unwanted Adult DVD Special Selection, just return that package unopened within 10 days, and you pay nothing! "
Implies that the cusomer gets 2 DVDs every month delivered to them for the $34.95.
WRONG! From the terms of service at their site:
"2. When my first 5 Dvds are shipped, I understand my Membership begins and that I will pay $34.95 per month for Membership dues for each month's Membership.
3. As a Member of the Club I understand that I may choose two movie titles which sell for $19.99 or less or one movie title which sells for $19.99 or more for every month I am a Member of the Club. There is never any charge for the shipping or handling of the movie titles which are "included" in my Membership.
4. The right to choose and receive the monthly movies included in Membership's terminate at the end of each month and may not be accumulated or used later. Monthly movies must be chosen each month. I understand that in the event I fail to choose my monthly movie(s) I will lose my right to choose them in future months or at any other time. I will not be given credit the next month and I will not receive a refund or reduction in monthly Membership dues. The Club highly recommends and encourages Members to use and enjoy their benefits each month.
5. About once a month (around the 15th) I will be shipped and billed for the Director's Favorite of the Month ("Director's Favorite") for the low price of $11.99. I understand that I will not be charged for the Directors Favorite if I ship it back to DVDs for A Buck unopened. I understand that if I open any Directors Favorite I will be charged for the movie whether or not it is later returned, unless defective.
6. When I receive my 5 DVDs for a $1, I may return them unopened within 10 days. If I am not completely satisfied for any reason, I may return the selections, provided the return is dated within 10 days of receipt, at the Club's expense and the Club will credit my account in full. There is no further obligation. I may cancel my Membership at any time.
7. You acknowledge and agree that all Membership disputes will be handled by the Member and the Club. The Club highly recommends and encourages Members to contact the Club with any disputes. As a Member of the Club, Members are offered a money back guarantee providing the Club receives any and all merchandise unopened for the said dispute. Any charge associated with being a Member which results in a charge back to the Club will be liable for a $150 processing fee per incident and/or the value of the charge back."
Read that carefully. The customer gets "credits" which DO NOT accrue. Plus they get charged $11.99 for the selection from them.
So basically it looks to me as $45 for a DVD per month for the customers that don't remember to go back and pick what the want each month.
We ship 4 DVDs every month no questions asked. The customer actually receives 8 DVDs in their first shipment. 4 for the penny plus the 4 from their first month's membership fee. All for the LOW LOW price of $35. No fuss, no muss. When the customer wants to discontinue the service, they can, but we ALWAYS make sure the deal is fair from our end.
