I have been trying to update book prices at the online store since the print on demand company announced that from September is was increasing costs of producing a book. They would NOT declare if the current books would be hit by a fee after selling to rake in the extra.
Yesterday a notice popped up at the store Apparently the print on demand company is attempting to kill business -it has screwed up its system, lost books, then demanded that books have formats changed to suit their "style" which meant extra cost and then it took MONTHS to sort out the problems THEY created with their inefficient and not up to the job system. This was their response to my query:
Greetings Terry! Thank you for reaching out to us today! We do understand the concern with increased pricing of publications. We have seen a study increase to printing and shipping costs over the last two years. This Fulfillment Fee will offset the rising costs of packaging your books for shipping in a durable, safe, and responsible manner. The Fulfillment Fee will be added into the shipping costs related to purchases. At this time we are informing customers of the future increase and as the month goes on, we will release more information regarding the Fulfillment Fee, including the amount of the Fulfillment Fee.
So no idea what the extra cost is going to be. In other words buy while you can before they **** everything up.
