    Can anyone tell me why a buyer for one of my books from amazon would not show an email address on the info. This is the first time it has happened I always sent an email with the time of posting or I would not have noticed. Thanks for all the info on this board as I have increased my sales with all the advice. :xmassign:
  • I sold four books yesterday - one on an underactive thyriod, one on Fashion marketing, a bog standard si fi and a history text book that was ordered from the Netherlands.
    I found that my OH's A level history books (about 10 years old too) have sold very very well.

    Bit of a mystery - did you have a look at your transaction history? the email address should have been there in the 'transaction' column

    I have sold another one of my 20p videos today(£4.50 profit,well chuffed,more profit than the 1st series ,weird) that I got from the school bazaar at the weekend,and I havent watched it yet,so 3 hours of the 2nd series of The Royle Family for me tonight only just finished the 1st series and had to send it immediately.

    Thats 3 of the 5 I bought sold already,I take it all back about Vids not selling I dont know what made me think that.

    I cant wait till that school has its summer fayre lol.

    Happy Christmas to all on this thread:xmastree:
  • Grunnie - I had a buyer a little while ago who had a duff email address - not an old one, it looked as though they had put in a duff one on purpose.

    I didn't notice until I tried to send my 'your book is on its way' email.

    I didn't have any problems though so hopefully you'll be OK too.
