Title: Coch-y-bonddu - Amazon Insanity
Post by: Robbie on July 24, 2017, 01:29:48 PM
After seeing a couple of recent posts by pedropete in the "What have you tied today?" thread I had a look for a copy of George Barron's book "at the end of the line". Found it on Amazon for £25.00 plus £2.80 pp. Noticed that the seller was Coch-y-bonddu and figured it must be cheaper to cut out the middle made so went to find on their website. price direct was the same £25.00 but pp was £3.00. Seems bloody stupid to sell it for less via Amazon when they must be taking some sort of cut.

I got mine from coch-y-bonddu as well as they had a pile of signed copies, you might be better emailing George directly, at goerge_barron@btinternet.com.

just my tuppence its well worth all of 20 odd quid as a reference book, for your desk.

I can understand amazon not liking window sellers selling a book cheaper than it is on Amazon. But for said window seller to ask for 20p more postage and package than amazon? Well that just cost them  the 40-60% cut amazon will take.
