They keep spamming you via SnailMail to buy 4 more books at club/regular price, and If you forget to return the card, they would just ship you the books for that month, just like BMG and other CD Services. Getting in touch with them is a big hassle, no toll free #.
Its a Good deal if you don't mind getting junk mail and then filling the form out and sending it back everymonth.

Hey guys. Its a good deal. I joined the club before. You can goto their website and respond to the mailings before the mailings even reach you. One book is not that bad. After that just cancel your membership and just like the music clubs they will try to get you back after like six months with the smae deal that you signed up for orginallly. Hope this helps you.

This is the same set that was available during the CompUSA $0.88 /$0.1 fiasco last month.

Shipping for me was $14.99, so $25 for the set plus one more book at regular prices. Not better then CompUsa's deal, but ok.

Did this deal in June, about $27 shipped to the west coast. Just finished my MCSE before christmas, passed every test on the first try.

The Core books where pretty good overall except for 70-216 (I barely passed that one). The included tests on CDrom where helpful too.

No need to return the card they send out every month, you can just go online to thier web site & fill it out.

They where out of stock of one of the initial books (I don't remember which one, but I didn't need it for my MCSE) so they sent me a voucher for free book instead. Used it to get the CCNA book everyone recomends for free <G>

I haven't bought the required book yet, but once I do I'll just cancel the club & join again if I need more books.

Overall a great deal if you need your MCSE.

I wouldnt want to start any MCSE or MCSD certification tracks right now, I was getting into the MCSD stuff a few months ago, but recently decided to wait until february (or was it March?) when Microsoft is supposed to launch all new Certification tracks, for XP and DataCenter servers, etc

The $14.99 shipping was for the East Coast, the books aren't super great in my opinion, but the little cram sheet is good.

If you check out their Main Page you will find that they have other deals too (3 books for $1.99 each + 1 free).

I paid a total of $22.43 for my 4 books ($14.99 for S&H)
Around $40 for a $39 book (my 1 book)

So $65 for $200 worth of books. Not bad.

This is a good club. They guarantee at least 20 - 50% off and they send me buy 1 get 1 free coupons almost every month. After you complete your requirement then you can request they turn off the auto shipments. I did this and if I don't want a book I do nothing and they do nothing. I have been very happy with them. I joined and joined my wife also to get even more free books. They told me over the phone that they encourage multiple family members to join. I had their number some place. It is avaiulable in your materials and I don't recall paying for it. I also remember that I always get answered pretty quickly as long as you during normal business hours. Good luck and good deal.
