DRF Consumer Alert

I just bought the DRF Stars and Stripes Players Package. The email I got detailed what the package contains.

Let me caution anyone - the Players Guide is a stinking 6 pages, no charts, no Beyers, no stats....6 pages of a couple of paragraphs each, for $10!

Clearly, the add they emailed me is a fraud and I am sending it on to the NYS Attorney General for false advertising. i called a told them I want a refund and I am going to send emails to every single address they have on their website.

Buy at your own risk - I have the downloaded copy for proof the deal is a fraud.

No charts, no stats, no Beyers.....no integrity!

Whatever they pay him, it is not enough.

Yes - I believe him to be the only actual human being left at DRF.
Very nice and helpful guy.

I had a problem with my account at DRF a couple months back. One email to Lonnie and he took care of it, no questions. A good guy.

Me too.

Without Lonnie, there would be a lot more dissatisfied customers.

DRF seems on a course to maximize revenue and minimize product. This guide was pure BS. There probably was a half an hours work put into it. You get FAR more information from a Steve Byk interview on Fridays.

I had been planning on buying the Delmar and Toga guides, as I always do, but from no won DRF is off my list for anything. Screw me once, shame on me......DRF is dead to me.
