This IS a great opportunity to buy some nice titles from them. (I have no affiliation with them.)
They also have the "club thing," which I have yet to buy into, but this might be an opportunity to check that out, too. Anyone here a member of Fictionwise's club? Don |

Most of the ebooks I have purchased since getting my Kindle are in Mobipocket. Almost all of those came from Fictionwise. I usually make a wish list while waiting for a sale. I still have about $200 in credit from the April First sale. |

I joined on the one year sub, taking an opportunity to realise a good sterling/dollar relationship too. Fictionwise has been my only source of book buying so far...

I belong and I buy most of my books from Fictionwise. I buy some from Amazon but usually Fictionwise is cheaper with the club discount.

I logged on to tell you guys about the sale and saw that you are already on top of it. The $10 off EB-1150 is the same Christmas sale price I got mine for. Get the device and use the extra $10 to buy titles!
OK, back to the dark post-eye surgery glasses. The vitrectomy went very well and I can already see much better thru the eye. Thanks to those who were wishing me well! Last edited by DixieGal; 05-23-2008 at 10:12 AM. Reason: Correcting my grammar |

@DixieGal
Glad the surgery went well. Happy readings! @Dr. Dibb Yes I'm a club member it is well worth it for me. It's $20 ($30-$10 rebate). You'll break even once you buy approx $130 worth of books. And if at one time you make a $100 purchase you will get an additional 10% off. So if in your first purchase you buy $100 you'll be saving $25 (15% discout 10% credit) http://www.libwise.com/fll/ Also what is harder to monetize. They have a public library only available to club members. There are not a lot of books here but there are a few gems and you can check them out for FREE! |

I decided to join the Buywise club after reading this price comparison on the Dear Author website.
Maybe it can help others also. |
