He was really helpful and assured me that the insults was a joke he made while being interviewed by The New York Times. It was unfair to compare a small company like lulu to a large one like Amazon.

They use common sense when formulating policies. I recently published a book on LULU (Reh Dogg Pictorial Story) and ordered my proof copy full price. That right there bothers me but I digress. After getting the book I unboxed it so my fans on youtube can see it. I then approved my book. A fan found the back cover to be upside down so I revised the book by rotating the back cover. Now LULU wants me to buy another copy at full price. Are they just that stupid? All I did was rotate the freaking cover? With create space I have a book with them (The lyrics you want to read) I also revised that and I might add when I bought a proof copy it was extremely reduced as far as pricing under 10 bucks. It's a no brainier moving forward that I publish with createspace rather than try an old washed up company like LULU. And now I learn the CEO is insulting his customers? Go to hell Mr. big shot CEO. I'm going to tell you the same thing Rush said to the President of the United States. I hope you fail.
