Kevin Bramer writes to inform that he's turning his massive reviews site Optical Sloth into a (US based) mail order distro.
Hi everybody, I just thought I'd let you all know that I'm turning the site into a distribution center and I'd like you all to participate. I may have liked your comics or I may not have, but I'd like there to be a huge selection on my site and everybody should be included. If you'd like to write your own comments for the books you sell I'd be happy to include them. As for the specifics, I'd like everyone to send me 5 copies of whatever comics you have available and a listing for how much to charge per book. I'm thinking of a 50/50 split right now, as the responses I've gotten seem to indicate that that is standard. How I pay you is up to you. I can send you a Paypal payment every time a book sells, or you can set it up where I just pay you every time you make $5, $10, or some other figure you come up with. I honestly can't wait to get started with this. The site is also going to have an overhaul, meaning basically it's not going to be as ugly as it is right now, and it should have a forum and an insite search engine. I'm hoping to get the whole thing officially started on April 1st at the latest. If you have any questions, comments or complaints, please get back to me at whitey108@hotmail.com. I'm new at this and could use the suggestions. Take care and please let me know what you think and if you'd like to participate!
