    Finally got a sale YEAH! "Woman and Punishment" sold at £14. Hopefully I'm now back on track after a quiet few days.

    Tabath: someone else (can't remember who) came up with the bright idea of taking a mobile phone and pretending to be sending a text message when you're typing in ISBNs. This is what I do. I then save it and come back and check Amazon.

    That's a good idea! I tried the pen and paper idea, but felt too conspicuous.

    I had a packet go missing in November claimed, got my money back it arrived back to me mid feb.

    Apparently the lost/missing/non delivery parcels go to Northern Ireland and then get sent back out again.

    I had three go missing in mid Jan so I am expecting them back any time now as I always put a return address on them.

    I lose the occasional package, usually in batches and apart from one item last year, not one has ever come back to me despite having a return address clearly shown on the reverse. I would still like to know where my mothers birthday gift from last october ended up...as neither of us ever saw it again!

    You'renot kidding about choosing thebooks carefuly. I had a best seller twice, bouyght it and had one given to me, so I put the search on, might as well sell it... 167 available, new ones from 1p !

    I find greenmetropolis quite good for recent best sellers as an option to look at if you have them.
