05/15/04 SAT:
---Received both April and May issues of LOCUS today. I better go through them while at the computer, because I see books listed and reviewed I maybe ought to put in my order file--such as the Hugo nominees. I have been falling increasingly out of touch with what is being published, the less I bother to find books to order from publishers that aren’t already in my order file.
---Disc Log:
- Duke Ellington THE TREASURY SHOWS, Vol. 1 (2CD)
- Basement Jazz ROOTY (Xgau: A Minus)
- Thelonious Monk THELONIOUS HIMSELF
After quite a while resting on my more or less laurels (past listings) it's time to get a move on and put up some more listings. My goal is five books every day from now on. This should be achievable, but not according to my past performance.
These books get listed in three places: on Amazon, Biblio, and Half. Books without ISBNs (older books) generally will not be listed on half. My prices might vary between these three places. Amazon and Half tell me competing prices, so I peg mine on them. Thus, if the lowest price for Deadly Percheron is $98 on Amazon, I might peg mine at $95. If it weren't my only copy maybe I'd be more reasonable. In fact, I think my Biblio listing is more reasonable.
Going forward (and possibly backward), links to titles of books will send you to the main Amazon listing. My listing will be somewhere amidst the other maybe 237 listings. This is where my photo of the book can be seen, which will probably be a better one than the one Amazon features. Half doesn't let me attach my own photo—at least I don't think it does. Photos are also at biblio. Lots of older listings still don't have photos. Nor updated prices.
I've been lousy at selling direct via email. Sorry about that, if you've tried me. Listing through the major portals keeps me honest—also prompt and reliable.
