Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    a scant eighty dollars worth of hardware, and that is being generous, bundled with some ebooks. Ebooks that they claimed are worth around eight hunded bucks until the convenient markdown to Only cost thirty five bucks?

    For shame TechDirt. With these tactics I expect to see a free set of steak knives thrown in. If this is the quality of deals you offer then I don't expect to be shopping here anytime soon.

    Seriously, that markup on ebooks is fucking ridiculous. You're promoting a scam.

    The $80 "full" price listed for the hardware alone is not a bad deal in itself -- even without any "discount." (too bad it's not sold that way here)

    Indeed, StackSocial/StackCommerce would do well to stop treating its customers like idiots all the time, such as claiming their ebooks are worth 10x the normal market value. Would it be so hard for them to be more honest? It would certainly reduce the amount of complaints.
