<title>Amazon VP Reveals Rare Sales Stats</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-55047 alignright" title="amazonlogo" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/files/2012/07/amazonlogo.jpg" alt="" width="114" height="52" /></p>
<p>Amazon Publishing VP <strong>Jeff Belle </strong>revealed some rare sales stats in an email sent to literary agents this week. PaidContent has <a href="http://paidcontent.org/2012/09/14/amazon-publishing-shares-some-sales-numbers-in-email-to-agents/" target="_blank">a copy of the whole email.</a></p>
<p>Since December, Amazon&#8217;s Thomas &amp; Mercer imprint has sold more than 250,000 copies of <strong>Ed McBain</strong>’s 87th Precinct series. In addition, AmazonCrossing authors Oliver Pötzsch have both sold half a million books in their life-to-date sales with Amazon.</p>
<div><a href="http://paidcontent.org/2012/09/14/amazon-publishing-shares-some-sales-numbers-in-email-to-agents/" target="_blank">Here is an excerpt from the letter</a>: &#8220;At the end of July, we released <em>The Trinity Game</em> by <strong>Sean Chercover</strong>. It quickly rose to the #5 spot on our Kindle bestseller list, and is already well on its way to surpassing 100,000 copies. <em>War Brides</em> by <strong>Helen Bryan</strong> occupied the Kindle Top 10 for most of July and August, and has now sold over 300,000 Kindle copies. We’re thrilled about our list for the rest of 2012, which includes Ian Fleming’s <strong>James Bond</strong> novels (all 14 books), as well as inaugural titles from our New York imprint, such as <em>My Mother Was Nuts</em> by <strong>Penny Marshall</strong>, and<em>The 4-Hour Chef</em> by <strong>Timothy Ferriss</strong>.&#8221;</div>
