Exciting News – Two pieces of exciting news!

First of all – I’m guest posting on the Alliance of Independent Authors blog today!

The “Third-Party Seller” system – or what Amazon calls “Amazon Marketplace” seems to be poorly understood. I’m going to use this opportunity to clear up some of this misunderstanding, and describe what is a major money maker for Amazon.

Many authors are unaware that “third party sellers” are selling used and new copies of paperbacks along side CreateSpace versions of the books. Unaware buyers may be purchasing new books from other than the author/Createspace.

As you can see in the graphic above for one of my books, there are several listings for new and used copies of my books. The used and new listings below the “Paperback” box are third party seller listings. For a full explanation of this significant part of Amazon’s business, drop by my post on ALLi’s blog
