Using Amazon

Hi guys, Amazon publish a huge amount of 'help' resources. But these are heavy on the self-publicity and very light on how the process actually works. Has anyone got experience of using them to store and fulfil printed book orders?

I plan to fund my 'coffee table' book via Kickstarter, I've got an award-winning design agency lined up and we plan to print in China. All good: until a couple of pallet loads of books arrive in the UK.

Apart from not having space for them, I'm not keen on the idea of packing and posting myself. Hence the question about Amazon. If you've got any other ideas about storage and distribution, I'd love to hear them!

Thanks in advance.

Don't quot me on this, but I think you can set up an amazon shop and sell your books that way, trying looking up other books you can buy printed and see how they look to give you an idea of what to do.

Hope this helps.
