    Probably get revenue from big clients direct i'd assume, I just know their cut doesn't effect our pay price so it's all good on our side.
    However they can take forever to actually get around to rewarding you with money. I got about 20 euro from them that i've been waiting on for half a year this morning.

    Jaysus already got a dispatch note for The Breakfast Book I ordered earlier. Looks like they want the stock out of their warehouse quick. Normally takes 3-4 working days to hit that status!

    ^Decided to pick that one up. Kim Newman is an excellent critic, though I've never read any of his books. This was as good an opportunity as any to pick one up :D

    I wonder if their have been many of the books left to sell after the 30mins. I was missing for most of this afternoon and evening, but from when it started and when I tuned back in this evening, they all seemed to be selling out.

    Could be down to fact of only 250 of each to sell though :)

    I normally buy my books from them, through amazon though and rarely direct from their own site.
    Free delivery is a nice added incentive alright :)

    Ah I bought that for myself. Never heard of that author but the last line in the description sold it for me
    "`Of Mutability` celebrate each waking moment as though it might be the last, and in so doing restore wonder to the to the smallest of encounters."


    It intrigues me as to how this can be done through the art of poetry :)
