They are selling new at Amazon for $6.92
I hope they are the originals and not copies that someone has burned and is now selling all the work you did.
Duh, disregard, I thought you were talking about the CD. My bad.
we had already order one
Just Itching!!!!!
The thing about buying used book from amazon is that they buy the book that you paid 10 buck for… Well they give me about $1.29 gift certificate for the book you are done with..
For instance M.D.I buy you book for 9.89 and I sell it back to them , they only will give me $1.29 what a bargain for amazon.. I sure hope M.D. That they share second profit with you.
I will kept your book, and not let them make an other 200% off of it..
Sorry if that impact in a negative way..
I know a few other authors that do not like the rip off factor.. M.D.
do not know how much you make on a resale?? I hope as much a 30 % of what you made of the original sale . Amazon is making way more than that.. And now kindle books are starting to go for a couple of bucks more than regular book.. Not for me.. ((I will wait for the sale books..
on kindle..))
I have had 3 bad kindle reader so far and amazon.. They made it right replacing them…. I am kinda rough on stuff..
But I am thinking I might just go back to the old bulky books and I can use it for T.P. if tshtf.. starting a fire.. or use as reference or mabey even barer!! Just my 2 cents ..To buy the book back for nothing and resell it at a 300% profit .. Well why should I complain it is the americans way..
I would just like to buy a use book at a used price!!
Libraries are great for selling off old books..
And mabey the people I know that signed on with Amazon to sell and to resell there books did not realize this. I am not a lawyer.. But it sound like amazon is making a killing again..
Typical we get @*++! again.
And just ripping people off….. Peace all good night..
Later going

I get a 10% royalty on sells of new books through Paladin as for the resale of used copies of my book I do not receive anything. But that dosen’t matter to me as long as it helps someone…
M.D.
Just the point on what they offer me for your book.
And what they resell it for. it’s kinda cloos to 500% I tnink
i am not great at math. NIce mark up again for Amazon.
I could sell stuff at garage sale like that.. But hey if they can get away wit it why not.
I hope Paladin get a cut of that resell but I doupt it.
Kinda reminds me of banking industry and wall
street..LOL
