Rogue Paperback Trader?

Fallen · Sep 14, 2014

I came across Susan Mac Nicol's post today on facebook, warning about a rogue paperback trader:

There appears to be a rogue trader on ebay who is selling print copies of authors' books which aren't sanctioned by either the author or the publisher of the book. I've sent his/her details to my publisher so they can try get a Cease and Desist action going but the more the merrier. Check and see if your books are there. I know some of mine are. One author has ordered a book of hers from the site and it turns out it is by a different print company than the one it should be.

And I was just wondering if anyone has heard anything about it? I know everyone's pretty used to pirated ebooks, but this one's a little odd.

Can anyone see their books on there when they shoudn't be?

Sounds weird to me, where else could they possibly print it? The vast majority of third party traders just jack up the price and buy a copy from the publisher of they get an order. Which is completely legal.

Hmmm, does seem a little strange about the prints from another source.
