Summary: 


I, too, like the SF Book Club a lot.  I've been with them for over 15 years
now, and have no complaints except, possibly, for the paucity of selections
available in their monthly blurbs.  However, I've found that you can go to
the teasers they send for new members and order books from there on your
monthly chits and win with no complaints from them.

Another point:  they are the type of club that requires you to send an
announcement back saying "nay" on the monthly selections to not get them.
A friend of mine said "I'm too lazy/absentminded to keep up with this" and
asked them to change him to a mode where he could order at his leisure (he
still received the monthly notices.)  They immediately, with no hassle what-
soever, changed him to that mode - and the announcements he received were the
same as mine.

All in all, I second the recommendation for them.  A breath of fresh air in
the (in my opinion, lest I get flamed) sordid world of clubs of various ilks.
