I bought this, but now I want refund. The books are excerpts, which I didn't realise. Why is Inbound Marketing listed as $20 for 30 pages PDF? I can get the full new hardcover from Amazon for $16.47. Also, half the webpages to download the items will not load. This is costing me more money in time than it's worth. I cannot use my trials without giving my credit card details and risk paying for the high priced plans when they expire. I think this is a great idea, but poorly executed.

I think this is a great idea and I thank the organizers for putting this together. That said, the savings can be a bit misleading. The value for an entire book is listed when only 2 or 3 chapters of the book is included with the bundle. I don't think the organizers are trying to deceive anyone, but just something to be aware.

Make sure to look at the full prices for all the apps. Many of those (Chargify and Uservoice, for example) will require integration into your application. When that 3 month trial price runs out, don't get hit with sticker shock when the full-price plan kicks in. It's very tough to just walk away when you've already integrated a service.

Noah Kagan approached me the other day about including HM into part of a 'startup' bundle. I have no idea at that time the bundle would look this big (and this cheap).<p>I think this would be really helpful to startups or those who are looking to start one and operate on a tight budget (which is what most startups are).

Anyone (or Noah) know if we need to activate these deals within a certain time period - do they expire??

Wow, this is a great bundle. I was planning on using some of these services in the next month, so the timing for me is perfect. Thanks for putting this bundle together Noah, Eric, and all the companies offering their services in the bundle.

Are you telling me I can finally have a Lean Startup AND save $1031 by encumbering myself with all these things I probably don't need by spending $42?!<p>Sign me up! (Hum. So I'm a bit of a "savings" cynic.)

This was worth the $42 just to add $200 to my Twilio balance. No way to look at that as less than a gain since I use their API. All the other pieces of the bundle are just great bonuses.

Awesome bundle Noah, as usual! Could you specify in which format the books come from?

honestly that is a pretty sick bundle. the fact you also get kissmetrics lifetime free account after as well makes it worth it.<p>glad it has chargify in it too, especially after we were talking about that here a few days ago.
