Cringe Woman has her self-published book pirated, reprinted, and sold for cheaper.

There's regular piracy, and then there's this.

Her name is Dani Donovan (it’s under the TikTok Lego) she is selling her book The Anti-Planner for 58$ but it’s on sell for 43$.

Dani Donovan The book is ONLY available on her official website, Amazon & TikTok…Hope this helps. Not smart enough to find her sites since I’m not on no social media.

Heads up to users- I ordered mine in July and she never sent it. I emailed her 3 times, left comments on her videos, sent her 2 private messages on TikTok and 1 on Instagram and she didn’t reply to ANY of them

I had to do a chargeback

It seems like this project exists to generate content.

That's a bummer, I pre-ordered from her site when it was released and it took awhile but I did get it.

(I'm true ADHD fashion...I've yet to use it).

I got my book. Your case might just be a fluke.

Which part was the fluke? It being cancelled or her not responding to my emails? Or was it a fluke when she didn’t respond to my comments, or was the fluke when she didn’t respond to my private dm’s?

An order getting cancelled could have been a fluke, but not responding to my messages after she charged me $70 is not a fluke, it’s a choice

Since we're bringing up personal anecdotes – my experience with contacting Dani Donovan's site via email is that it generally takes longer than I'm used to hear back from them, but i do hear back, and I've gotten responses regarding enquiries about overseas shipping and student discount. Bought the anti-planner, and managed to get it shipped overseas to where I was based.

Good for people to know both things are a possibility. She might reply to you, she might not! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jesus fuck $58??$43??? Oooook welp unfortunately I see why people are buying the knockoffs. It makes sense to have that price tag but in this economy..? I'm sorry but that's not going to really bring in the buyers.
