Ordered a book on amazon.co.uk. Received an edition that is authorized for selling only in certain Asian countries (it is clearly written on top corner of the book). Wondering where can I report this (apart from amazon (and CUK)).

Was it Amazon itself or an Amazon Seller via Amazon Market Place. They are not the same thing. Amazon Market place is basically the same as eBay without the bidding process.Originally posted by raphal View PostOrdered a book on amazon.co.uk.

You could tell the publisher. They are the only ones that might be affected by this - well, the author too, but the publisher stands as a proxy for the author in respect of editions they publish.
As to whether a publisher will want to pick a fight with the biggest retail bookseller in the world…

It's like those cans of fizzy drink or beans where they say "Multipack - not to be sold individually".
You know: Who says? What you gonner do about it?

So you've ordered a book you don't think you should have been able to order, and received a book you don't think you should have been able to receive.
Sounds like you're complicit in a crime, you should get yourself down to the nearest cop shop asap and report yourself.
Or just send the publisher a fiver.Comment
