    Woke up this morning, saw 25 new sales (usually 1 - 2 per day). And then found out they are all $.01 used book that doesn't pay any commission...:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    If I were running Amazon, I would have software that watched for stuff like this, and consider it a sort of click fraud. It's a way to raise commission rates on all your other sales. If I were you, I'd contact Amazon.

    At least that will immediately bump you up to tier 3, certainly better than nothing.

    Look on the bright side, more sales leads to higher commission rate.
    I think that's the main target. Bring in more sales to increase commission percentage.

    Hilarious!

    That's happened to me many times. I look at the initial stats, see loads of sales, feel excited, then feel heartbroken once I see that all of the sales amount to just pennies! That's why I never assume anything until I see what I actually sold.

    However, as Ramfir said, at least you are now closer to securing a higher commission rate.
