My novel 'Follow the Dove' is now on Amazon, listed as 'temporarily out of stock' Several other sellers are selling them as 'used' at very reduced prices. Publisher tells me that they are having problems delivering to Amazon. Why? And how on earth can booksellers list them as used? It's newly published, and Amazon has not even had their supplies yet! I know several people who have ordered from Amazon and are waiting patiently.
Since Troubador still has the origonal stock minus what i bought myself, and another couple of people, obviously neither libraries nor other stores have had their supplies as promised.

Have the same problem with The Milesian and several poetry collections. The companies seem to be getting some vicarious credit for listing titles they don't have - nor are likely to get at the reduced prices they quote. Pay no heed. Let them worry about it.
As to Amazon - that's the categorisation for anyone who doesn't actually pay them for storage - meaning out of their stock. Again, nothing for you to worry about. Good luck.

I'm only worried about the people who have ordered from Amazon from both sides of the atlantic and may not get them for Christmas.

Yes, I appreciate the actual esoteric concern. I was focusing on the legal side. Excuse my crassness.
