I am a new member since a couple of weeks ago and have been reading some of the posts. They are using abbreviations and I am not sure exactly what they stand for. Is there a place to look them up that I haven't found yet? They are RC, ARC, RWAP that I have noticed so far. Thanks a lot for any help. |

From the help desk- (HTH's) :D ETA- I see RWAP isn't on this list. RWAP or RWP= received with a problem ;) Acronyms/Abbreviations common on PBS:

Thanks. Guess I hadn't looked far enough yet. Some of them I have figured but a few had me stumped. Last Edited on: 2/18/09 1:58 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

1. What are mass market paperbacks and how do they differ from regular paperbacks?

Mass market paperbacks are the smaller standard size paperbacks like you mostly find at grocery stores. Tradesize paperbacks are the larger ones that are basically the size of a hardback but softcover. I don't know what those new taller but not tradesize paperbacks are called. Some books come in many different editions with many different ISBNs. The ISBN and binding have to match. So if the ISBN brings up an audio and you have a hardback-or it brings up a paperback and you have a hardback-you have to post the book without an ISBN. People expect to get the binding that's in the PBS listing. Sometimes publishers use the same ISBN for multiple bindings. Sometimes books are reissued by other publishers who give them a whole new ISBN. Most books have a different ISBN for each binding-but not always. So make sure the ISBN and binding match. The D means Dear or Dumb depending on your mood when posting :-)) Last Edited on: 2/19/09 4:15 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |
