Apparently, Amazon Kindle (low book prices) is making an impact on the sales of other online bookstore, that
Fictionwise resorted to this 50% Micropay rebate program.
Booksonboard has taken notice too. It's now offering
30% all ebooks (straight discount, not rebate) and rewards dollars too. No sure when it would end (presumably when Fictionwise ends their promo?) - the website just says as long as the sign is up.
Too late for Booksonboard as I already bought a boatload from Fictionwise. I have enough books to last me through the year, and if I finish them before then, I still have all those Micropay credits to spend through.
UPDATE: Fictionwise promo seem to have ended prematurely, as the rebates have reverted back to their previous rates.
