Our small shop became: What we forgot with our online delivery order shop. Or: I know where you are if we are snowed in shop. Enjoyed your rant, BTW, is the Damson Jam still up for grabs:-)KielderStevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18257453736361272329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983057519799689883.post-8533851709470951522019-08-27T09:20:17.735+01:002019-08-27T09:20:17.735+01:00You're right, it is part of the contract.

My main issue with Amazon is when we're on a market, selling our books there and then, and folks still prefer to take a bookmark and try and get it cheaper online. Entirely their choice of course and just the way the world works. I was simply expressing my frustrations at that particular aspect.

I just think it's a bit silly to be moaning about something which you are entered into willingly (presumably to get wider distribution and hence more sales). I just think you undermine your own point about keeping it local as a result. hillplodderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13534999864214782762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983057519799689883.post-77687876824972197652019-08-26T21:47:01.729+01:002019-08-26T21:47:01.729+01:00Our publishers put them on there. 🙂Our publishers put them on there. 🙂Cumbrian Ramblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03372624872224851441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983057519799689883.post-28769042753972046862019-08-26T21:27:31.771+01:002019-08-26T21:27:31.771+01:00Don't take this the wrong way, but if you'...Don't take this the wrong way, but if you're so sensitive about people going off to buy your books on Amazon, why are you even selling them on there ?hillplodderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13534999864214782762noreply@blogger.com
