Chris is right..and I don;t want to always be the bad guy..but why
not...this is just the beginning...fees will double, triple,
quadruple...wait till ABE or BBF is bought by a big guy and they want their
$$$$ back...the marginal, hobbyist bookseller is just along for the
ride...if someone puts on another p.b. stephen king or .....the system
should implode....much higher fees much higher...much better advertising
should be the mantra...the split between those who try to make a living
selling books ...and those who try to make a tax deduction...is already
there...welcome to bookselling on the net where you need no capital, no
experience, no knowledge, no good books, no nothin' but a bagful of
questions...Yo, isn't that E-bay, calling....DRn.
