I have a friend whose DH is like that! <shudder> I'd have liked to have invited her to my birthday party, but I didn't want him to come. I was feeling bad about it, but my DH told me that if the deatheater was invited, DH himself wouldn't come. So there you have it! Easy choice!
It does seem like Scholastic has made their lives much harder than necessary and ours much more disappointing than they it had to be!
I did ask why 1/3 of my order was cancelled, since that's what the subject line said on the e-mails I got about it. "Not cancelled," the woman replied, "just no longer in stock, sold out."
So it's not a conspiracy, just a you-know-what-poor system. <smirk>
