question about this whole Amazon thing

[rm]

Book just went on sale on Amazon for 20% off.

Is this good, bad or indifferent for me?
Does it say anything about what they think the book's prospects are?
etc.

You _can_ find books on Amazon which aren't "marked down" in some way, but it's rare . . . very rare. The whole "markdown" thing has been part of the Amazon marketing/operating model from day 1.

By the way, since I've neglected to say it until now, CONGRATULATIONS! Go YOU! :-)
