If your local game store bought a book of mine from IPR, and then sold it to you, I'd probably be getting somewhere around 44% of the cover price. <br> <br>On the other hand, if I were getting into the kind of distribution necessary to sell it through Amazon, I'd probably be netting something more like 30%. <br> <br>So, yeah. Buying stuff through IPR is financially better for the publisher. :)Fred HicksSat, 14 Mar 2009 15:58:12 -0000
