Quite awhile back I enrolled DD in the children's book of the month club. The site is http://www.cbomc.com/ It was really great at first, but the last two times I ordered, the books have been backordered. First I ordered 2, they were both on backorder, and then this last time I ordered 3 books and a DVD (Beatrix Potter :D) and it's all on backorder too. I can understand the Beatrix Potter being on backorder because of the whole easter bunny thing, but it's irritating to me because I get so excited about getting her new books and then I have to WAIT for them. I'm really just not good at waiting :lol . I've also done searches on cbomc lately for Dr. Seuss and Curious George, and they really don't have much of either of those. I was just wondering if anyone has their kids in anything like this, if there's any out there that I could look into (preferably ones that don't consistently have things on backorder). I've already fulfilled the commitment to this one, so if you get bonuses for referrals I'd be happy to oblige.

TIA

We are members of the same site and I'm not happy. My mom ordered Ella books and they were all backordered and one was cancelled but they still wanted their 35 bucks. I called and cancelled the order. But yeah I'm not impressed with them at all!!

Yeah, like I said - in the beginning it was great - but the last month or two have been seriously irritating. It might not be so bad if we knew beforehand what was immediately available and what wasn't, but you don't know until you check your order status. They don't even send an email to let you know of the delay.
