Kings of False Advertising

<p>I was looking so forward to this release of the 8th Harry Potter. I registered for tickets, I invited two friends who are HUGE fans. And we were excited for an epic Harry Potter themed evening of awesomeness. <br />Exclusive Books described this event as a "party" as well as "exclusive" and what was it?! A line. A three and a half hour line for the overpriced book. I should have known that they were going to be disappointing because when clarifying details for the event, with their team over Facebook, I was treated as if I was stupid and didn't follow instructions- i.e. read the terms and conditions (which I did and this is why I had questions). They were so rude in our communications but still as a fan I thought it would be great to experience this. <br />Turns out the fans put in waaaaaaaay more effort than exclusive ever could. I know many many people who went out this morning and purchased the book for cheaper with no queues and more of an experience. <br />I am sick and have legs that are in spasm but because of the promise of a party I decide to go and experience this amazing, exclusive party we were promised. And now I'm left tired, in more pain and hugely disappointed. <br />Being in marketing, myself, I'm still in shock and awe that Exclusive Books could be so rude and falsey advertise to such a passionate group of fans, especially when the book could be found at a cheaper price from friendlier people.</p>
