Eric Quinn (eqknowles) One of my titles just dropped off the free list. I would love some help getting it back to free.

Amazon link is: http://www.amazon.com/Ring-Destiny-Re...

B&N link is: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/ring-...

Much thanks! I'll go back through everyone elses listings and contribute, as well.

Lucia Jordan | 4 comments Hi Eric.

I just did your book. If you get a spare chance could you please do my 2 books.

My links are above (Message 53).

Sincerely Samantha xxoo


message 58: by Eric (new)

Eric Quinn (eqknowles) I just submitted price changes for both of your books, Samantha. The Kobo links didn't work, so I used the B&N links.

Talitha Kalago (talithakalago) | 2 comments Hey guys, I am wondering if people can report my book too? It's FREE on other retailers.

I will go up the list and report all books that haven't already been price matched.

Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Lifesphere-INC-...

And Kobo:
http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Lifesp...

If no one minds, I may come back and add a B&N and/or apple link later, if Amazon doesn't respond.


EDIT: I've reported everyone on the list back until the 15th of May. Before that it looks like everyone has been price matched! Great work, guys!

Eric Quinn (eqknowles) Done, Talitha.

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments I've told them about the lower price for Zombie Dash- will try and do some of the others in a min!
Anyone who's willing to help me-it would be most appreciated. My book 'dark love ya version' is free on Kobo: http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Dark-L...
And I would like it to be free on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Love-Versi...
Thanks!


message 64: by M.D. (new)

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments I just reported a couple more - but most of the ones I clicked on were already free - so congrats! Hope mine is too soon :)


message 65: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Logan (lisalogan9) | 6 comments Have you noticed much of an increase in sales from your free promo days on Kindle Select?
The reason I ask is I'm wondering if I should continue on Kindle Select. I've only ran one 2-day free promo on a weekend, but I only received a handful of sales. My rank went up but went back down over time afterward.
I've got three more promo days left for my 90-day period on Kindle Select, but is it worth it?
Thanks,
Lisa
Lisa M. Logan


message 66: by M.D. (new)

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments Yes, I find an increase in sales after promos, think 3 day ones tend to work better. Sometimes the increase is major, sometimes not much - depends how well the promo went!


message 67: by Eugene (new)

Eugene Yu | 4 comments M.D. - Reported your book for free on Amazon

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments Hi again :-) It worked-my book 'Dark Love, YA Version' is now free . . . on amazon.com at least.
Now I'm trying to get the adult version free too - I would be very happy if anyone could help me please.
Here are the links:

apple: https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/dark...

Thanks M.D. (and anyone else who has 30 seconds.)

I am trying to get my title, Zombie Dash, price matched on Amazon for free. Here is the link on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Zombie-Dash-ebo...

Once you click on 'tell us abotu a lower price' insert this link from B&N:

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/zombi...

and put the number zero in where it asks for the cost of the book and shipping.

Thanks! I'll be happy to reciprocate.

message 77: by Emma (new)

Emma Calin (emmacalin) | 10 comments I have been through the list above and alerted Amazon for messages 75 (Mark) ,72(MD) and 59 (Talitha), 53 (Samantha )and 56 (Eric), - I think some of these are already on free.

I am trying to get 'ANGELA" the first of my series free on Amazon USA and Amazon UK:

AMAZON USA link: http://www.amazon.com/Angela-Hopeless...

KOBO link: http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Angela...

SONY link: https://ebookstore.sony.com/ebook/emm...

I am not sure if going free on Amazon.com automatically filters through to UK, France, Germany etc, Just in case it does not could you send the same free links to Amazon UK:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Angela-Hopele...

Thanks so much for your help - will check back and help out anyone else who needs the same.


message 78: by Mark (new)

Mark Matthews (xmarkm) | 30 comments Reported it, Emma, and thanks to you and all. I'll gladly click others. Once again here is my link on http://www.amazon.com/Zombie-Dash-ebo...

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments It worked - Dark Love is now free on amazon.com
Still trying to get it free in UK though, here's the links if any ones willing to help (please!!)

I think I've reported every ones on here now, but if you're having probs getting yours free, just ask and I will report it again.

Congrats! Mine is not working. I wonder if it is because it is a short story.

I downloaded your book though M.D.


message 84: by M.D. (new)

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments Thanks, I wondered the same about yours, but I'm sure amazon price match stories that short sometimes? Hopefully they will do yours soon, I have reported it a couple of times.
Hope you like my book if you read it!

Neat premise, exciting cover. I am recently published myself (whoooopie! http://www.amazon.com/On-Lips-Childre... and have been since reading the whole other line of books by this same publisher, which is a deep pile. Then again, all of our TBR pile is deep I'm sure)


message 86: by Robert (new)

Robert Stewart (bobstewart) | 13 comments Mark,

I submitted that for you...


message 87: by Robert (new)

Robert Stewart (bobstewart) | 13 comments I don't think length of the story has anything to do with it, but rather that the process is pretty arbitrary. Or maybe they just have some convoluted algorithm that's impossible to decipher.

Thanks Bob! I appreciate it. It will happen someday perhaps.

Emma Calin (emmacalin) | 10 comments My book 'ANGELA' has not gone free yet - I now have a B&N link as well so here is my book link on Amazon and the links where it is free. thanks for anyone who has time to paste these!

Not up on iTunes yet... but hoping that these will be enough. Thanks for your support - happy to return the favour.

Done! Hope it works this time, my book didn't go free on .com with just the kobo link either.
Would you mind reciprocating the favour? I'm still trying to get my book free in the UK.

Hi MD - done all three of those to Amazon UK. So is your book on FREE on .com now? I wasn't sure if it 'rippled through' all the countries automatically - what have those before us found?


message 92: by M.D. (new)

M.D. Bowden | 57 comments Thank you! Unfortunately I think .com and .co.uk need to be reported separately. But I have managed to get the uk to price match the young adult version of my book - so it can be done!

I've reported your books. Good luck, mine are free now so it does work in the end, I just get impatient with the waiting :-)


message 97: by [deleted user] (new)

It is terribly annoying, waiting for them to finally change it.

If you all wouldn't mind, I have a book I'm trying to get posted as Free. I've been working at it for about a month now, and they still haven't changed it! Any help would be much appreciated. :)

The book on Amazon:
