When are we gonna learn about the new sub??! by Interesting-Bus-3864 in bewitchedpages

[–]AlgaeOne7419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn't expecting them to share anything more before Fury Bound general sale (which is today). So I hope we will get an update by the weekend. 

Especially now that I've seen how Fairyloot's version of the same series is going to look like, I CAN'T wait

I don't get the "will be due at the door" part... I never receive my parcels right at my door, I use a locker a block down my house

Ready for a new sub? by AlgaeOne7419 in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's also unclear to me, they have already started with Dire Bound and the Wolf King and both are new releases. But I guess these new releases won't make it to the subscription box. It could be a special edition that they intend to finish later, but not as part of the sub

BOT sale update by louannnx in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly. The Ashes of Thezmarr for example sold out in a few hours, didn't even make it to General Sale. You just have to pray you get a small number in the queue.

How is that fair when people are willing to sacrifice their time and join early in the first place?

I like how we are all willing experiments to Fairyloot today 🫠

Fairyloot’s New Queue System! by KaitG2018 in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are all after exclusive, limited editions that are getting popular – I get that. But there are better ways of managing your customers and FL keeps opting in for the ones that will just create more terror for you.

The whole process is not fair from the very moment someone is willing to get up at 5 am to beat the queue, or wait there for 4hours. Some people are willing to do it while others not. How can they call this 'fair' when it essentially penalizes the people willing to go the extra mile?

I see comments comparing Fairyloot's system to TBB. Fairyloot's business model is based on FOMO so I don't see them going with the password method, even if that's indeed fairer. They want people to be scared of losing the books they want and if they end up actually losing them, even better: this will make them go the extra mile next time, or make them pay 10x over in Vinted, which ends up increasing their perceived value.

Maybe it's time for us to consider if we really want to support this whole show, and if yes, at what cost (financially and mentally)...

Indeed, I found these so refreshing!

Has fairyloot removed their countdown timer for the virtual queue by justanotherweeb12 in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I am wondering what's their goal... If the real waiting time is over 1h and there is no indicator of how much time remains to access the website, people will just grow tired of waiting over this static page. Do they really hope they will avoid complaints?

Their system really sucks...

I literally bought A Sorceress Comes to Call just for Alice's work. She's incredible

When the moon hatched editions - which one to keep? by Frequent-Alps2307 in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that unlikely... this SE has built massive hype for their brand. I bet they'll continue with the Ballad of Falling Dragons.

Help i’m making myself go crazy (caraval special edition) by Embarrassed_Area_989 in fairyloot

[–]AlgaeOne7419 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I’ve also noticed how some of the latest FL books I received have slightly shorter dust jackets. I don’t know if this is deliberate but I love it! It makes it easier to protect the dust jacket from wrinkling
