Fa Bd Comics books on SCAMazon: don't buy them

@davidrevoy wha? doesn't it cost money to publish on amazon? They must make a decent business out of ripping people off, and plainly aren't spending any money or effort on quality control. Having your own name linked on it and thus likely to be blamed, apart from not getting any money from sales, would be the worst part if this happened to me.

@bimshwel Apparently, you can publish at zero cost thanks to Amazon print-on-demand system: you send a PDF and they print books one by one when someone purchase them. So, it's the open door to quickly made content to try to sell it.

I have the same system on DriveThruComics: except DriveThru require me to buy each book before I can publish a PDF, to be sure I agree with colors, and the quality.

Apparently, this quality step is not part of Amazon process...
