When you buy the book on Amazon, there is a deadline of 3-5 business days for your refund. So, if you don't like the product, if you think the book is poorly formatted or badly edited, you can ask to return your money.
Everyone has a choice and the product is not always ideal. Some books are poorly formatted. Others are bad edited, or not edited at all.
Sometimes, you will not like the cover or the title. Maybe a cover confused you about the genre. It looks like a horror, but..wait, it is fantasy or romance.
What happens if the refund option is abused?
The reader can buy a book, read it in 3 days and return his money. It is ridiculous if a book is 1.24 (like happened to me) and the reader asks for money back. If you think you can do something with this dollar, go ahead. Take care of your savings.
The refund option is abused as a "free book " option. Do you want a free book this refund is a way to get it and return your money?
To be clear, I can't make a profit of 1.24 dollars. My royalties in this case are 0.38 cents, this can't be lower.
This post is not regretted about the lost earnings. This is an alert for respect. The reader should show respect toward the author who invested his time and money in the book. If you think that is so simple, why don't you try to write your own book? Even better, try to promote your book in the reader's circle, let me see the result.
Remember, your opinion is a statement of your attitude.
Other readers will like this book because this is their choice.
