    I want to look into getting a copy of the area rug cleaning book that was posted on the second to last PCN webinar. Anyone know the name of it off the top of your head?

    Happy New Year as well!!

    I have a copy if you want to pick one up. It is written by Aaron Groseclose and Ellen Amirkhan called "Comprehensive Guide to Oriental & Specialty Rug Cleaning".

    Here's the link on Dusty's site for the book:

    http://www.rugbadger.com/ultimate-rug-guide.html

    It used to be $395 - I'm not sure why it went up a hundred bucks, but perhaps to create a margin to give to resellers of it.

    The book is framed around the entire MasterBlend product line - which are not the only chemicals to use for rugs. I always wondered since there is so much specific product promotion why there would not be an offset of the price as a result.

    It's a good book. Ellen is great. And Masterblend has some good chemicals - but there are some others I like more.

    Dusty might give you a deal. I'm sure he has some extras.

    Thanks Lisa, yes I do still have a couple of the Comp gudes left with a discount and they are the expanded and much better second edition! Just call me and I will set you up. 866 885 7847

    Oh yeah Lisa, the book has always been 495. except on special deals that I arranged with the authors and it often sells used on ebay for even more. I have no idea why you would say this misinformation about the Comp guide as you know it was always 495, from the get go. Regarding it having "product placement" of the Masterblend line, well that is hardly visible and what is wrong with that even if it was in your face? Last time I checked free enterprize and making money was a good thing,, right?

    What I don't get from you Lisa is why it is OK for you to be a "paid" spokesperson for a competitive,new and unproven brand of "WoolSafe" juices, but somehow it is wrong for Aaron Groseclose and Ellen Amirkhan to sell their guide and lightly promote the well proven and respected line of the Masterblend WoolSafe formulas
