Oh yes. Do go look at the wonderful false representation of what Books-A-Million CLAIMS to have IN STOCK.
Books-A-Million *ahem* ad for Never Ceese the Paperback!
Misrepresentation number 1: BAM doesn't stock anything but returned-from-the-bookstore books, you know, books that OTHER larger bookstores (Barnes & Nobles etc . . .) buy then return for a full refund because they can, SOOOOO they don't carry Never Ceese the paperback because I made Never Ceese the paperback non-returnable so it couldn't be stolen by bookstores. (I'm cool like that. ;)
Misrepresentation number 2: BAM didn't mean it was in stock at their stores, (it isn't. See above) what they mean is there are some used dealers who have it available.
Misrepresentation number 3: Of the four used dealers listed only one shows having Never Ceese while the other 3 say the book is no longer available. They don't specify that they mean they're the only idiots that can't get it because they don't want to order it, they infer the book is out of print. It isn't! It's selling just fine and earning fine reviews except when Amazon screws things up as they always do. HA!
So while it is a most pretty ad, do know that BAM will never be able to stock Never Ceese as it will never be available through the distributors they use. I will never make it returnable. You can buy Never Ceese the paperback through any other bookseller though, they'll just have to order it for you first.
Books-A-Million always gives me a good laugh. I'd like to see you try and stock Never Ceese the paperback. You can't have it!!!!!
