Subject: ABE Tempest
I couldn't disagree with this more...tho ABE is Fine and an Independent
Bookseller Coop is even finer....and Capitalism Sucks...this is from some
one like many on this list who do not support either themselves or their
families from BOOKSELLING...AMAZON AND B&N...poured more money into O.P.
book Advertising in the Main Media in ONE YEAR....not AB which was talking
to the converted..than had been spent in the previous 99 years...Millions
of $$$$$$$$...all of us ride those waves, who sell books..Remember
CANDY....$$$ doesn't equal capability....full page ads in Major
Newspaper..Ads on T.V..please give us a break and go back to the days of
$20 not $20,000 Faulkner's..DRn..
