Thread: Amazon.com

    Amazon.com

    Some time ago I wrote that Amazon.com had advertised my book at 50% off and then when I looked again, it appeared that the book was no longer available, which indicated to me that my book had sold out and Amazon had to obtain more to sell. I thought once they were available again, the book would go back to its orignial price of $15.95 but it hasn't. It is back on their web site at 50% off. Not a good thing. My royalty is only 20%, so 20% of $7.95 isn't much. I thought I had a question but I guess I don't. Just a comment.

    Yes, I noticed that, too. I commented earlier that I thought your book would most likely return at the regular price. I am surprised at the result, too, but I am not certain at what price Amazon has purchased the books. This whole half-price phenomenon has surprised me considerably since I was under the impression that iU had no intention of selling any books at anything less than an amount that was barely low enough to suit Amazon in the first place. There are only a very few iU books at Amazon at half price, and one of mine is one of those few. I would certainly like to know why they chose these few out of 10,000!
