Just curious if anyone has found one of their titles on Barnes & Noble that's published through KDP Print and making use of their Expanded Distribution option?
I've been tracking a few of mine and they're still not showing up even though I've found them on Book Depository. It'd be nice to find out because then I might just make use of their new BN Press.

Well, since the swap over, the books are less searchable, but are there. Try looking for your name and seeing if it's there. Even putting in a title on my latest doesn't bring up the search, but under my author name it's there.
-
I'm not looking forward to it either, but that may be the only real good option for a book that has the bones to get some paper sales.

I'm all about getting my books on the virtual shelves at Walmart. I knew there was a thread on kBoards about how to get your paperbacks and hardcovers there, but I refuse to go back there. Anyone know which aggregator does this?

Yes, I have found my book on Barnes & Noble but there is so little information I don't see it selling. There's no look inside, no blurb, just part of a tag line.

Just pointing this out... If I was Barnes and Noble, I definitely wouldn't want KDP Print anywhere on my store page and would do what I could to suppress any book with that listing. Unless you have your own ISBN, KDP Print is going to be front and center on the page. [size=78%]I can't say I blame B&N or any store for doing that.[/size]
But then I'm a huge supporter of using your own ISBns, so I might be a tad bit biased ...

B&N had all my Createspace books there, so I don't really see the difference.
You're right, though, mine had their own ISBNs, not Createspace ISBNs.

Smashwords books get to Walmart via Kobo. :-)
