What if something comes up like you lose your job or you have a medical or other personal crisis? What happens if, in the first year, you have to cancel and you've only bought say 3 sets? Is there some penalty for cancelling before all 6 sets are purchased? This is not clearly addressed as far as I can see.
My apologies for not being clearer, but in the part of my post not quoted, I wrote, "if [cancellation] occurs before the first year's obligations are fulfilled as outlined in the agreement, the person is then
only obliged to pay for premium items already received as a member". In other words, your
only obligation at the time of cancellation is to pay for what you've already received as a benefit of membership. (From the MPI agreement:
You may cancel your club membership at any time, with no further obligations, via a written request.) So, regarding your scenario, under the current agreement you wouldn't be obliged to purchase 3 additional sets, and a penalty, if you can call it that, is that you must reimburse MPI for the bobblehead received as a free incentive for your agreement to join for a year. Hope that helped.
Then the agreement states: Your credit card will be automatically charged as soon as each new Dark Shadows DVD collection is released. This is problematic for someone w/out a credit card as Victoria mentioned.
