Amazon matching the royalty (for want to a better word) to 70% across the board would be huge. But would Amazon do it? Think of all the 99-cent books whose royalties would double. On our side, we could price books at $1.99 or box sets at $12.99 if we wanted to.
Getting the money from B&N in 30 days would be nice, but not IMO as important.
Here's hoping the promo opportunities at B&N will be better than Kobo's incessant "make it free" promos. Ideally, a percentage off at the checkout and our prices stay the same and the Amazon spiders can't touch us. It's not that I'm an Amazon hater, but I am lazy and don't want to change prices on multiple venues every few days to cover a discount period.
Another happy thought is that at 70% royalty at B&N I could drop the prices on my books by a dollar and still make the same net profit on each sale. Might improve sales.
I'm not in a hurry. Let's see what happens.
