Most kindle books suddently not available to buy ?
I'm guessing something must be broken at Amazon as most UK Region books are no longer available.
It still lists the books but around 75% can't be bought and show 'This item is currently not available.' next to the picture of the front cover. Grrrr. |

Fascinating - I can get on Amazon but no links work to access the ebook section.
Whoops - now nothing works - the site appears fubared! |

It seems to be working now. Was down about 5 hours. Perhaps down was wrong, it was like a flopping zombie on the floor, trying to work but failing in a disturbing way...
Sorry, been working on another horror book lately. |
