The Awesome Story Of How Stephen Colbert Helped A Debut Author Win Against Amazon http://www.businessinsider.com/edan-lepucki-california-book-beating-amazon-2014-7/comments en-us Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:00:00 -0500 Thu, 25 Dec 2014 02:23:12 -0500 Madeline Stone http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53beb2cd6da811597057fd8a kingstu Thu, 10 Jul 2014 11:35:41 -0400 http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53beb2cd6da811597057fd8a How dare Amazon negotiate for better pricing (which it passes on to customers). How dare Jeff Bezos provide great service and great prices to customers. It seems he really hates his customers by trying to sell ebooks for $9.99. http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be37416bb3f721464197ac Wais Thu, 10 Jul 2014 02:48:33 -0400 http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be37416bb3f721464197ac Signing copies is easy if there are no people involved. http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be36b0eab8ea3f5d7c807b cltaylor12 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 02:46:08 -0400 http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be36b0eab8ea3f5d7c807b To be fair, her signature is a K and a swiggle. Nevertheless, well done indeed! http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be3682eab8eab3657c807d cltaylor12 Thu, 10 Jul 2014 02:45:22 -0400 http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be3682eab8eab3657c807d My copy arrived today. Thank you Stephen. I've closed my Amazon.com account (which I had open since 1998) and have bookmarks for the assorted other booksellers. I will buy sundry items elsewhere unless there is no other option, then I will defer to the husband. ;) http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be110d6bb3f7dd304197ac larry jacobs Thu, 10 Jul 2014 00:05:33 -0400 http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53be110d6bb3f7dd304197ac The story says she autographed 10,000 copies in 3 days. That is semi unbelievable. It amounts to 1 every 12.9 seconds, 12 hours a day for three days. Simply can't be done. This is why you need an editor for web sites who is familiar with numbers and can administer a stink test.
