It might be that you can unpublish and then republish, retaining the same ASIN, but I don't know if it's actually possible.

Yea that is what I was afraid of, I have good ratings (4/5 with 13 reviews), and all though my sales rank is falling now (I need figure out this adverting stuff) its been as high as #7 in Sci-Fi.

I guess I will just leave the mess be. If some one emails me and complains, I'll can point them to Smashwords...

Thanks
