eCals - FAQ
How do I order backordered items?It depends on the statement about the item. If it is on backorder you should be able to add it to your shopping cart and pre-order it. If it is not available,
Why do I get File-Not-Found PagesThis means that Amazon.com no longer has a record of the calendar; they are completely sold out with no backorder possible from the publisher. We then rebuilt our site (automatically) and our rebuilding program creates a "File-Not-Found" page.Do you do fund raisers?Unfortunately we do not do fundraisers. But we have several leads and suggestions.
How do I sell my calendar on your site?We would be interested in selling your calendar(s).
We prefer to sell calendars as an affiliate of the sellers site or via Amazon.com. But, here are the possible ways to sell via eCals.
How do I find a calendar for a local attraction/event?Probably not going to be much help unfortunately, but here are some ideas. Many of these "local" or "specialty" calendars are produced and marketed locally, sometimes "onsite" (at a stadium or event), the local market is so large and/or specific they don't have to invest in national marketing and distribution.
How do I publish my calendar?You can self publish or if your calendar is perceived by a publisher as great or unique, they might publish it and give you a portion of the net sales. Say 10%, maybe more if you are a known author, artist or celebrity.If you wish to publish the calendar yourself, the Internet can make it much easier and more likely to make money on the calendar. You can have a local printer, who does calendars, print the calendar for you or you can find calendar printers who specialize in printing them. Once you have it printed you can market it online. See our How do I sell my calendar on your site? section. Why is the price listed different from the Amazon.com price?If you look at a listing it has a price and/or discount listed, but when you click on the link and go to the Amazon.com page the price is not discounted. This is because we build our site once a week (during Oct, Nov, Dec., once a month otherwise) from Amazon.com information. So our site can be out of synch with Amazon's "updated" information/prices. They will remove the discount for several reasons; low margin, small purchase from publisher, low volume sales, new calendar, discontinued sale, etc.This is why we put the following statement at the top of our listings.
Sorry for misguiding you in anyway. We just can't afford to rebuild the entire site more often than weekly or monthly depending on the schedule. |
