Book was not free

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Book was not free

Post by Pinkydeb19 »

The book, Extravagant Easter Eggs was suppose to be completely free on Amazon but when I clicked on Amazon and went there the book was $7+!

Hi,
I check the books that are posted for the daily giveaway regularly and try to read them as much as possible. And at times if I am not able to sit through them, then I hoard them on my Kindle so that I can get back to them wherever I want.
But with today's BOTD, both Amazon and Kindle apps are showing the prompt 'Title not available for purchase'. Can someone please help me with this?
TIA!
Books may well be the only true magic.

The book isn't free, so you don't have to get it.

Oh, okay. But, doesn't it usually have a free sample or a first chapter link? How can I enter for the giveaway without checking the book? I mean, is that allowed? If so, how does it work?

It does have a free sample, and it is available for purchase. The issue must be on your end, as I can access the sample.

If you can't access it, try to change device or browser.

Thanks! I tried with another browser and the link worked!
