Kindle Editions of TDF books - not available for Canada?
« on: August 25, 2011, 11:51:33 PM »
When I tried to buy our beloved Harry's books from Amazon for my Kindle, I got an error message saying the titles are not available in Canada. What's going on, do I need to do something at my end to get the books?

I've emailed Jim's editor again on the subject.  She's investigating.

I'd like to also express my concern over these books not being available to Canadian Kindle users.

I bought books 1 and 2 off of Kindle at the beginning of the year, and was disappointed to see book 3 wasn't available. I borrowed a friend's 3, and just got around to reading it. Now, book 4 isn't available, and it looks like books 1 and 2 can't be bought in Canada anymore either. But I can buy book 5 :o

Is it a licensing issue, or someone being lazy or something? It seems this whole ebook thing for Canadian users is being handled horribly, or not handled at all. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming Mr Butcher or anything, I'm just a bit miffed at the situation  :(

Thank you for bringing the situation to Jim's editor, Priscellie. I hope she can sort the situation out with Amazon or whoever needs to be talked to :)
