E books has changed publishing. But paper back books, I think are better.

I tried the site but said it couldn't load the page Code 404.
I'll try again later.

PostSubject: Ebooks sales on Ebay   Mon Sep 07, 2009 7:17 pm

I just sold an ebook on Ebay. I had to ship it on disk though rather
than email transfer. It appears that you lose your prime category
if you choose email transfer.

You can use the disk thing to your advantage, Ray. I burned two ebooks onto disks (with the autorun.ini file and a little icon taht shows up when they stick the disk in their drive)  and had "covers" printed on them (weird design job...the center has to be empty) and put them in DVD boxes, with nice wraparound covers and sell them on store shelves.Cost me about around $2 USD to do it.
