Clothes are super cool and comfortable. But expect that 1 out of 5 will be defective. Expect when you send it back, you they will not have a record that you have sent it back. Expect that the item will not be replaced. Expect that you will have to call several times to get things straightened out. Expect that they will not give you a credit. Expect that they'll offer free two-day shipping even if you don't care when it arrives; you only care that it will arrive sometime in the same month. Example: you get a notification (picture attached) that your order has shipped and the notification itself even shows that your item has not shipped. In other words, expect really poor order fulfillment follow-through and you won't be disappointed. One more thing: expect high prices. That's one thing that C2C does follow-through with.

The concept of a different kind of presentation that's not a Powerpoint is the only thing that seems to get Prezi about as far as it has gotten. But it's appeal stops there. The platform isn't intuitive, so plan on setting aside a LOT of time to get to know it. I mean, for a simple presentation, plan to set aside a full day -- 8 hours -- to get the simplest presentation together. Want to add your own image or background? Prezi says you have to wait to reconnect to the internet even though you're already connected. The list goes on. Highly recommend free trial before you go down this road. Because it sure isn't worth the money.

I used CreateSpace when it was BookSurge in 2009, and they were great: access to Amazon, good royalties, and staff were willing to help no matter what it took to get the job done well, which is why I came back

But now, 8 years later, I can't say the same thing. CreateSpace (CS) has you use a template for your book, but you quickly find that the template has severe limitations (like pagination, headers and other kinds of formatting). CS then charged me $149 for help with formatting and even then couldn't get it right. I talked to at least 4 different people to have the problem resolved, and in the end, just asked them to stop work. It was pretty clear that the experience from 2009 didn't fit into their business model today of only providing help until the service fee is exhausted. Result: the publication formatting looks amateurish. Looking back, I would have gone to UpWork for freelance formatting help, then published through CS. You can find someone less expensive and more accommodating than CS's add-on services. I regret not having known this earlier.
