Very helpful!
Re. what you said about it being more expensive to have bookvault send out books via website integration or whatever, I'm wondering how true that might really be. Yes, in terms of direct money spend, but overall? I'm thinking about packing books up and getting them in the post, and the admin stuff you don't have to do when it's done for you - when you take into account the additional time that takes, if you put a nominal value on you time (say minimum wage hourly rate) would that hold true? Of course it depends on how efficient someone is at doing all those things, but is it something you factor in for yourself? And what about orders that come in when you can't fulfil them quickly (eg away for a few days)? I don't know how you'd put a value on having those dealt with more quickly, but I can imagine scenarios where too much of a delay could have a financial impact.
Also, the more I think about the £20 set up fee (with 5p change) the more that feels OK, as long as you sell enough books. Once you've sold 100 books, that works out at 20p per book. At 1000 books it's just 2p per book.
(I watched this because I've started putting together a large print / large trim size book that makes more sense in landscape and so am looking for an alternative to KDP.)

Absolutely agree with you. It depends on the volumes you’re handling

I've been considering bookvault for some time now but there hasn't been much news/reviews on them particularly regarding their print quality for children's books, so this was helpful, thank you! How many books can you upload with the £19.95 set up fee? It's not clear online...unless I'm missing something.

[@EmmaRosenBooks]

I think that’s the price per title. It’s to prevent people uploading low content or poorly produced books quickly

[@asayeed2853]

I see, thank you.
