About the Smell of Books Product Recall


Written by
Nero

The problems never seem to stop around here. I am sorry to report that we must temporarily remove our new Smell of Books product from the market. I would like everyone to understand that this has NOTHING to do with those ridiculous claims being made by the bohemians at “The Authors Guild”.

We have just learned that our aerosol can supplier in China mistakenly shipped us a small number of recycled cans. In some cases New Books Smell labels were inadvertently affixed to cans that actually contain new car smell.

Please note that this mixup will not cause any harm to the consumer or to the electronic books. It is just that these cans will not produce the scent that you are expecting.

If you have already purchased a can of New Book Smell you may return it to the store for a full refund. However, it is very important that you understand that you are under no obligation to do so. In fact, we strongly encourage you to use these cans in an automobile. They will work especially well if you have a very old automobile. It probably will not be noticeable if your automobile is new.

I must apologize for this unfortunate incident. This is obviously not what we had in mind when we created the Smell of Books. We are working to address this problem and return the product to the market as quickly as possible. Please continue to check this website for updates.

Thank you.

    Ha! This is why you are needing me for all DuroSport offers in all marketplacings. The next time I am in the Sex Rehab, you won’t be so forthcoming with a new product.
