Thanks!

chilady1 · 11-28-2010, 05:56 PM

Thanks much - just used it. Got the entire Maggie O'Dell series by Alex Kava for $24 - great deal!

koland · 11-28-2010, 09:57 PM

I've been looking at getting the same series ... off to fill my cart.

koland · 11-28-2010, 10:15 PM

Couldn't figure out how to get the whole series for $24, but a good deal on the bundle and two others in the series (two are still priced at hardcover pricing). Dropping Exposed got to the $24 range (with Whitewash thrown in); Exposed is cheapest at Amazon currently, it seems.

NightBird · 11-28-2010, 10:31 PM

Wow!! These just keep getting better. I've been waiting for some titles on my wish list there to go down in price, but this will work. lol. I'm going to use it tomorrow after I see if there any interesting new books since it will be Monday.

Thanks so much for sharing this!

Thanks! I got 32 Rex Stout books for under $140. They are replacing my old collection of dubious origins. I don't know if I'm ready to give up my pbooks to the library however. I treasure them and I think as paperbacks they'll be thrown into some sale dollar bin.

I'm so glad you share these since I'm obviously on Fictionwise's feces list. I've spent a couple thousand there—you think they could drop me a line. I guess that's what happens when you have no Micropay left.

Hi Marcy,

I've been a member with Fictionwise since 2004 and stop getting their newsletters about 3 months ago. I've emailed them 3 times and they swear nothing has changed, but I'm not getting them. Thanks to the members here I'm able to be informed of any deals.

Odd, I had a few books in my cart and only the first one had the coupon applied. Am I doing something wrong?

I already had Damaged which is the latest one. Had to get the others, that's how I got to the $24 and change price. Glad to hear you picked it up Karen.

Have you checked the spam folder in your email on the email server? Sometimes things get shuffled off there even when they are real. I check every so often and find it to be so sometimes.

The problem I've noticed with Fictionwise is that if you want any non-multiformat eBooks, you have to get them in eReader. BAH! That's nonsense.

As far as I'm concerned one non-epub format is just the same as the other. I still have to strip DRM and convert so what's the difference? And eReader DRM is trivial to remove with current tools and converts to beautiful epubs with working TOC and internal links.

And while I despise all DRM, eReader is less noxious than most, since the key is only my name and credit card number. As long as I take care to record this info I can access my books. Of course since I strip and convert it becomes a non-issue anyway.

Ditto and Amen!

(sigh) I'm having trouble finding stuff to buy for my Sony 505 on Fictionwise. No Kathy Reichs, Jim Butcher, Jasper Fford, Janet Evanovitch, etc.

They DO have the "Girl with the Dragon Tatoo".. books but in secure eReader format.

Marcy - Would "current tools" include Caliber to make this work with my Sony?
