Anyone tried KDP Pricing Support (Beta)?
« on: March 27, 2019, 02:07:45 AM »
I'm wanting to mess around with this feature, just to see where one of my books would land, but I can't get it to load. Using two different browsers.

Has anyone else used it (assuming you could get it to load)? If so, did you take the advice on the best price for your book? Just curious.

It says to price at $2.99 for every book I've ever put in it so... :confused:

I've used it from the very beginning, and its answers used to vary. Making the optimal price for everything $2.99 is a more recent development. It's hard to tell how much data--if any--the system is based on.

This has been my experience. It used to suggest different prices but not anymore. I get $2.99 for every book regardless of length, genre or any other variable.

Yep.  I always got $2.99 or we don't have enough information to provide a price.
