    FS4 Online bookshops.qxp_Layout 1 05/12/2019 15:55 Page 1 MFacatstheaetd 4o —rOnline Bookshops Online Bookshops Most online bookshops automatically and regularly source their information straight from Nielsen BookData, which provides the entire book trade with a comprehensive database containing information about all books in the UK that have an ISBN. By receiving this data automatically, online bookshops can make every book published available for sale online. Because of this, your book will automatically appear on most of the big online bookshop sites, such as amazon.co.uk and waterstones.com. It may also be advertised by third parties, again through their access to Nielsen, on sites such as eBay and Amazon Marketplace. These shops don’t necessarily hold physical copies of your book in stock, but will order them as required through normal book trade channels. Matador only has an input into the information that is provided to Nielsen. We have no influence over the way in which the information is displayed by other s. Because of the sheer volume of information handled by the Nielsen BookData system, it can take a while for information to filter through to retailers once it has been updated by us. It may, for example, take up to three weeks for your cover to appear on online bookshops once it has been uploaded. Why are online bookshops offering my book at such a large discount? We have no say over what price any retailer sells a book for. The publisher now can only suggest a RRP (Recommended Retail Price) – but what the consumer finally pays is beyond the publisher’s control.
