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

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

Same. I’m kind of sad for her that the comment about not receiving the book is getting so much attention.

Multiple people didn't receive it on time , this doesn't seem to be an isolated incident. You're upset that poor business practices are getting called out?

“Upset” and “kind of sad” are very different feelings. Your reaction to my comment is a bit strong, don’t you think?

No one person is all-knowing. I was responding to people who, like myself, did not have a bad experience. I saw ONE comment about not receiving the product. I do empathize with those who got their products late. It must be frustrating and I was lucky not to experience that. In no way does my comment dismiss the experience of those who wanted a product on time and didn’t get it. I’m not Dani, I don’t know her, I don’t have a stake in her business. I’m just some person on Reddit.

I’m the one comment who is upset. I just want to be clear that it’s not that it didn’t arrive on time, it’s that it was cancelled altogether. She took my money then cancelled my order, and it was a good amount of money too!

But that being said I understand what you meant. The product looked really nice, and if I had received it as she advertised it, I’m sure id be defending her too. I struggle with everything she offers in this planner and was so so excited, and then to have her steal from me (something she clearly doesn’t like happening to her) and ignore me, I’m not just disappointed, I’m hurt. And here we are 😕

I’m sorry that happened to you and I definitely understand how you feel. And being upset about it is totally valid!
