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.

Yep, I'm getting the same.

Annoying, but I'm sure they're onto it....

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.
