Default 2+2 publisher question

First of all i plan on purchasing 2 more 2+2 books. However, i am also returning 2 books to be replaced because my TOP book is in complete shambles and the pages in my HPFAP book are starting to come out. Should i go about replacing my two previous books and puchasing the two new books separately or can i send a check and a letter explaing what i want done with a box and have you guys just send all four books back together? Also, can you remind me the address where to send these books. Thanks.

I have the same problem with my Advanced Tournament and TOP After 1 read (actually during) the pages just started falling out.

Hi mts:

I just love hearing this stuff. Because of the way our books get used, we have now just gone to a different glue, and I guarantee with this stuff the pages won't come out.

If you have bad books, send them to:

Two Plus Two Publishing LLC
226 Garfield Drive
Henderson, NV 89074

and we will replace them. Make sure to include your complete return address. However, you can often repair your books to satisfaction with a little Elmers glue.

Also, you don't purchase your books from us. Two Plus Two is only a wholesaler, and we do not retail. That's even the case if you purchase from this site where all orders are filled by ConJelCo. So don't send us a check if you return any books.

best wishes,
Mason

For what it's worth - this problem isn't limited to 2+2 books. My Lee Jones Winning Low Limit poker fell apart as well.

Default Yes, but 2+2 books fall apart...

...because they're read over and over, not because of all that dust getting into the spine and degrading the glue...

Hi clovenhoof:

We have just switched to something called PUR glue. It's much more expensive and it's a little scary to use since it takes 24 hours to set. That is I can't check the books on the binding line to see how secure the pages are. But when this stuff dries, it is like iron.

Right at the moment, only two of our titles Tournament Poker for Advanced Players and Hold 'em Poker have this glue, but we are in the process of reprinting Hold 'em Poker for Advanced Players and The Theory of Poker, so those of you who purchase these texts in the future will have the advantage of this glue. Eventually, all our titles should have it.

Best wishes,
Mason

Hi Mason

Playing weak tight like you do ( [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) you need something to spend your time in between hands anyway!

I just bit the bullet, cut the spines off and saddle stitched my copies.
