I totally agree with you. I was a member of that club and got nothing to show for it. Yes, I did get the package with the photo, the poster, the badge, a membershipcard, a letter from Stevie etc. After that I ordered some merch and nothing happened. This was around the Wild Heart tour. I didn't get my stuff and I didn't get a refund. So I called him and he said that his partner (in crime) Glen Parrish had run off with all the money. He had gone back to LA. He said that he was loosing his shirt but promised me I'd get my stuff. Nothing happened and when I tried to call him someone would say he wasn't in. So when I was in NYC (in 1984), I went to his office. I either wanted my stuff or a refund. Much to my surprise some movers were cleaning out the office telling me there was no more Fanfair Marketing. Chris Nicks had gone to Arizona and there was nothing left.
