Amazon idea for book 4

For book four I could sell exclusively through amazon marketplace. The difference is pretty big.

If I sell on marketplace for £3.24 (meaning 5.99 to your door) I would take £4.08. The cost of sale would be £1.80 print, 90p postage and 14p for the envelope - or £2.84. PROFIT £1.24

If I sell on advantage for £5.99 I get £2.40, but my minimum cost of sale is £1.80 print, and 50p postage (to get the book to amazon if ordered in bulk) so i only make 10p.

I might ditch all routes to purchase except marketplace.
