Yes, it's taken all morning but the online store has been upgraded and all books re-priced.
It's ridiculous to think people have been able to buy 50-60-70 and even 80 and 100 pagers for £6.00-£7.00 for six years or so. That is just so ludicrously cheap and, yes, practically give-aways. I wanted to give potential readers a bargain and a good read.
I just got a poke in the eye back.
Well, all prices have been updated to be more realistic so if you never bought that book you 'wanted' at the old price -tough.
Thinking about it, I really do think that the lack of comic education is why people are scared of even picking up Black Tower Books. They have sturdy, glossy covers and are in the A4 format -standard European Comic Album format. What they generally see are A5/Digest, US comic size or book style publications. Even at last Saturday's disaster, looking around, I could see nothing like my books.
But for Black Tower graphic novels, prose books and others, A4 is standard. I'm not going to spend months re-sizing just to please the eye of the dilettante comic buyers.
I stick by quality and, despite prices changes, a very good cover price for buyers.
