17 July 2013 – From John
20 E-Books for 2 euros for two weeks – with this announcement, Amazon has its clientele obviously ecstatic, a large part of the bargain has already taken hold in the bestseller list. Indie authors are less enthusiastic.
20 titles from yesterday, Tuesday 29th to July are reduced, appeared all at Amazon Crossing, there are translations successful English-language literature. As a publisher, Amazon has here the full price of sovereignty – and exclusivity, the advertised e-books are only available from Amazon
.
2 euros for professionally translated and proofread novels – which could be many readers do not say that again, the e-books at lightning speed climbed the Kindle charts. Currently, the first three places in the Amazon bestseller list are occupied by such a “two-euro-e-books,” eight of the titles are already in the top 20 – rising. Interestingly omitted deals on Amazon for all string prices will be displayed just the new price. FYI: The Overlooked Man (currently # 2) cost 3.99 euros before the action, an unexpected inheritance (currently # 3) 2,99 €
.
“As in a 1-euro store”
victims are publishers, but probably still very indie authors who compete on price with the Amazon Crossing e-books and were ousted by them from the front seats of the Kindle charts. In a writing group on Facebook anger at the displacement is large – but consensus is that Amazon has beaten the Indies here at their own game. So asks Michael Meisheit, with its eBook Out of this world, thanks to a 99-cent action recently even at the top of the Kindle charts, self-deprecating in the round, “Shall we make ‘ne petition: Self Publisher fight against publishing books under 5 ? € “and adds:” We see yet again today that Amazon can make all the plans and strategies naught with a finger swipe “
.
Monika von Ramin aka Nika Lubitsch, with “The 7th Day “and” The 5th Bid “is also a bestselling author, the author holds the mirror before:” Why you actually excited about € 2 books from Amazon when your 99 cents makes it permanent actions with your own books. One feels already like in a 1-euro store. “General will discuss how long you can still drive sales and differentiate themselves from publishing titles with special offers.
