- Hi, gang... A question of sorts:
-
- Does anyone have any experience with "Small Computer Book Club"?
-
- It's a "Newbridge Book Club", which sounds like a company with different
- book clubs to choose from.
-
- Recently I received a flyer for membership, offering 3 C++ and programming
- oriented books for $5, plus shipping. Is this offer worth taking, if
- I'm interested in the books in question? They require 3 more selections
- over two years to complete the 'contract'. How much is shipping? Will
- I end up paying $5 for three books, plus $10 shipping each, or some
- stupid thing like that?
-
- Whaddya think?
-
- Thanks in advance.... email preferred, post acceptable.
