I wrote an article a while back about how certain big online Amazon sellers tend to do a bait and switch.  They list large numbers of books and they do not have alot of them.  Then if they get an order they do not have they send ANYTHING hoping to buy time or ???. 

You can see the original artical here:  frugalmedia01 apparent bait and switch techniques

This article is about how certain types of postings are set to very low google search placements or possibly supressed altogether……

1- Do this search -  frugalmedia01   site:amarketplaceofideas.com

RESULT: It appears this article is in the Google Index

 

2- Do this search – frugalmedia01

RESULT: If you search all the pages you will see no links to AMarketPlaceOfIdeas.com ‘s pages AT ALL.

 

This result was coming up at the top of search results because of the candied urls. Now it is not.

This entire article is an experiment to see if I can get google to re index an article with a amazon user name.

After ordering a very low priced book from frugal media [and paying the international parcel postage] I was concerned by the comments posted here. I contacted their customer service and received prompt and courteous replies. The book I ordered has now arrived in excellent condition within the estimated time. I now wouldn’t hesitate to deal with them again.

I ordered a book from frugalmedia01 and after a wait of a couple of weeks I received an email from Amazon that they were refunding my money. Never received any communication from frugalmedia01.
Will not buy from them again.
