But it is you who is pulling the book, not B&N. I don't blame B&N. I blame you.

You see, if you had not gone with Amazon and were not thinking of maybe doing so again, you would have at least 3 or 4 sales just from putting it back out in ePub. But it is your choice to with your book as you want. I am not going to buy a book that may be pulled for sale only with Amazon. Now if you want to rethink this and tell us that you won't be pulling it, then sure, I can go ahead an buy, but not as things stand now.

Question, if someone was to buy your book in ePub as a gift for someone else and before that someone else got to downloading it, you pulled it for Amazon. Would you refund that person's money since that person did not get a chance to download it before it was made unavailable? Are you sure that when you pull your ePub edition to go to Amazon, that you are not in fact causing some people to not get a copy that was paid for?
