Who are swestbooks, and how are they selling my book on Amazon? I asked them, and the very next day this book (Eurovision Volume 2) suddenly became unavailable on Amazon. Such is the mysterious world of selling things online. Eurovision volumes one and two are now unavailable on Amazon - you can get them here on Etsy. However their translated versions are out there, as you'll see below.
For sales made a slight improvement this month...
April just £8.56, March £38.57, Feb £35.25, and Jan £26.84.
Here's how the sales break down:
Eurovision Spanish Edition - 12 copies: 4 (UK) - £5.25 + 1 (US) - 89p + 2 (Italian) - £2.53 + 5 (Germany) £6.34
Eurovision French Edition - 7 copies (via Hachette) - £10.81
Eurovision Swedish Edition - 4 copies: 1 (Australia) - £1.45 + 1 (US) - £1.01 + 2 (Germany) £2.90
Punk - 3 (US) - £2.76
Midsummers Nights Dream Team - 2 (Germany) - £2.93
Eurovision Best Of British - 2 (UK) - £2.88
Doctor Who - 2 (UK) - £2.55
Rom Com - 2 (US) - £2.02
80s Superstars - 1 (UK) - £1.54

Royalty - 1 (German) - £1.48
Findlay Macbeth - 1 (Aus) - £1.47
80s Pop - 1(UK) - £1.45
Shakespeare Omnibus - 1 (UK) - 54p
So, no sales for the English language versions of the Eurovision books, or for the German or Italian versions - despite sales coming from Germany and Italy! Madness. Over on Etsy, it looks like this:
Etsy sales April 2023 = £171.05
Eurovision Volume 1 - 10 copies - £90.87
Eurovision Volume 2 - 6 copies - £41.94
Punk - 3 copies £20.97
Eurovision 2 digital - 1 - £0.99
Tales From The Bible - 1 - £10.99
Midsummer Nights Dream Team - 1 £5.99
Most profitable side-hustle at the moment is flogging stuff on eBay. This £259 worth from the last 3 months includes two of my childhood Action Men, that went for £23 and £46 each, and also...
9 x Punch mags 1998-91 - £21
6 x Fringe programmes - £5.50 (cost more to post than I'd been paid, even inc postage)
4 x Fringe programmes - £8 (got stolen and replaced with a lump of wood)
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - £5.99
James Bond Aston Martin - £3.99
Batmobile - £8
... and sundry other magazine bundles for around a fiver each.
NB You can't sell old NMEs from the 2000s, why do you even try?
