Title: Do I lose reviews if I unpub and later repub?
Post by: Hopscotch on March 14, 2022, 04:51:51 AM
I know this is an old question but what is the latest:  Do I lose reviews if I unpublish and later republish a book w/same title, author and presumably asin?

I would like to see the answer to that as well. I'm probably going to unpub in November. I would like to know if it's possible to unpub audiobooks as well.

I can only speak to Amazon, but I unpubbed a boxed set, then repubbed it two years later under the same ASIN and the old reviews came back.

That's what I thought.

They never really delete the product page. Just hide it.

So as long as the asin doesn't change, it should be fine.

What about Audible? Can I unpublish there?

My audio book is on Findaway and I unchecked audible last summer and it's still on Amazon.

Guess I'll have to check with Audible and Amazon. Hope I can get a straight answer.
