My latest letter to Amazon's Author Central

This is my latest correspondence with Amazon just because I like for all to see how they actually function:

Journey Stone Creations no longer holds the rights to Never Ceese ISBN 1-59958-017-9. They have reverted back to me. A letter was sent to Baker & Taylor the distributor and the book is no longer available. Barnes & Nobles no longer sells it thus telling me that Baker & Taylor has followed the rules and made the book unavailable. I suggest Amazon make it unavailable as well as there is no legal way for Amazon to get Never Ceese ISBN 1-59958-017-9. Please do not humor me with your double-speak that says I need to talk to the publisher and do not tell me that you have no information regarding what I just told you. I'm telling you now, Baker & Taylor has the letter that shows the rights reverted back to me (as they asked to have it faxed to them.) If you continue to say that you can sell the book then you are breaking the law and I'll be forced to take action.

Everyday I go on Amazon and see Never Ceese the hardback being sold by Amazon for $17.99 knowing that the only way they can sell it is to get it via the original distributor, Baker & Taylor who has been notified that the rights to the book have reverted back to me and had me fax the letter over that states such. Doesn't really matter that only one or two sell. It's the principle. I'm just amazed at how Amazon gets away with the things they get away with. This is NOT the first time I've told them the situation. Why would they stop selling the book. They know I'm not going to prosecute. It's not worth the one or two hardbacks they do "steal/sell."

*** Amazon's reply. They have some of the hardback in their fulfillment center and that's why it's showing up as available by Amazon. My reply, that seems odd because they never stocked Never Ceese or any other book by small press. They only order when the book is ordered. Okay so maybe they felt lucky and ordered one or two and that's all they have. Well, I want to know and so I've asked them to tell me just how many are in their fulfillment center. Let's see if I get a reply. Hmmmm . . .
