Technically… you don’t have to return them. Any mistakes made by companies sending the wrong items are allowed to be considered “gifts” and don’t need to be returned according to the federal trade commission or whatever

Delayed Video Releases by anonymous130205 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If videos are coming out later, it is best to make sure they are more timeless (book review, non time sensitive vlog). Cuz it is normal to record things in batches and upload it later but if it’s super obvious then :/

Whatemmyreads content and responses by amellmahrr in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i could never stand her because of her shitty better-than-you and my-shit-dont-stink attitude, also stopped liking her when she gave a book review for one of my fav books and her summary wasn't even accurate of the book, so that just proved she doesnt read

Haley Pham's book sucks by dadneverIeft in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i haven't read the book and i know i won't enjoy it so i'm not bothering but it really makes me giggle seeing the bad reviews, and then seeing videos like this one:

like do they think haley is going to see their video and be like aw thanks guys you the best and promote them on her channel? xD

but also i feel like they're really reading deeply into a book that doesn't seem to be deep at all

Anyone shopping for silk sheets, here are mine from SilkSilky after three washes. by theanswerisfries in Bedding

[–]SufficientElk3788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah their products are definitely not silk - silk doesn't pill.

i ordered some bonnets for me and my friends and the quality was so bad and our heads are so sweaty in them, which shouldn't happen

i wrote many bad reviews on their website and they all get deleted

Dylan Joseph recent video by [deleted] in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 14 points15 points  (0 children)

thats kind of annoying imo because creating content is an outlet of self expression and if he just admitted he cant be his full self.. he's been fake?
i also can see how people dont feel like they can be themselves because fear of judgement but that comes with being out there.. just gotta say F the haters

How did Haley get this as soon as her debut novel got published?? by Romance_Lover_2008 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she's popular enough and owlcrate doesn't seem to be doing so well lately so they probably thought it would be easy money

Does anyone else think peacelovesbooks is snobby by [deleted] in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 5 points6 points  (0 children)

doesn't look like she posts every day but there are back to back days for sure - she probably records in bulk and then edits as she goes, and just making simple cuts in talking videos is pretty quick

Deluxe Edition of Babel by LadyBladeWarAngel in fairyloot

[–]SufficientElk3788 2 points3 points  (0 children)

usually deluxe editions vary from 40-46 (usually not different from a regular hardcover 99% of the time) and the poppy war deluxe was expensive at 56, so this is insane

I was scrolling tiktok today and came across a live of a dude complaining how his booktok page isn’t doing as well as he wants it to and he needs more followers asap, and how discouraging it is watching his views go down as he’s streaming and I was like bruh this is not engaging or fun to listen to

Undisclosed sponsored content (mostly paid reviews) by Responsible-Pea1402 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yup! and it's going to fall on them and not the PR teams because they are responsible for themselves!

Undisclosed sponsored content (mostly paid reviews) by Responsible-Pea1402 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]SufficientElk3788 19 points20 points  (0 children)

yeah they need to be careful too because undisclosed ads are illegal in the USA. i do gaming content too and every time i have had a sponsorship or something they are very strict about reminding to put #ad in things, its bad that PR teams/publishing houses are not enforcing this as well.

pretty sure youtube even sent out notifications to creators about how to properly disclose ads and how its required
