@fhrkenya79721 @ignyharaz2 Za mabati walls hapa Kiambu ni mob na za Mbao from Kinangop all the way to Nyeri, no difference just different modes of kujenga

@Branicemercy Naweza osha meno huko Next carena insurance cover & how much does it cost?

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

The issue about the pricing of that book can really show you how Kenyans love mediocrity and it ends up to the ballot

Kenyans progress in crime and we all wonder how creatives still don’t progress in life

@bevalynekwambo3 @Rube_Mfalme Publishers work with bookstores countrywide and they regulate the books prices countrywide moreso school books like that one
If one opts to purchase books from their own source & start selling them at crazy prices it calls for scrutiny

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@Sir_Onserio @jeanbrendah Kitabu iko na KICD approval and govt supplies books to only public schools, you know we have private schools too
Msichoche huyo, publishers have a body that regulates them
Ever seen a pump sell fuel passed what Epra recommends?
That’s how it works here too

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@_MtuTano Huyo KPA, Kecobo na KICD ndo watamuendea kutafuta kama yuko na any other pirated copy of book Hata kama sio hiyo just like how Epra does to petrol stations
Do you ever hear any petrol outlet sell passed the Epra recommended price? That’s KPA role in books

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@Osama_otero Osama publishers control the price of the books and authors earn royalties from the sales
That book in discussion is a school edition for children in Grade 10
Hakuna author hajui bei ya kitabu chake

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

Bookseller Hana enough money to buy the minimum required number of copies or amount of cash rated by a given publisher, ananunua vitabu Kwa distributor who acts as a middle man then as a retailer anataka kuuza at an exorbitant price while tagging the author

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@Oliat_ @KibangaBooks Publishers control the price of books & the book in discussion is an approved school edition for Grade 10, that bookstore will soon find itself being targeted by the likes of Kpa, Kecobo and even KICD
They better get a good distributor

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@KKombani Don’t give up on this one
Follow up
These are people who might even be selling pirated copies for different authors at exorbitant prices

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@ayielar @KibangaBooks The publisher should now make it an effort to ensure they don’t exploit their potential customers more so by stopping them spread fake prices online

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@ayielar @KibangaBooks For your info that’s normally a retail price either VAT ecl or inclusive
Booksellers like that guy should buy books direct from the publisher and get at discounted price

[MJ @ItsMJ_Arthur]

@KibangaBooks The retail price of that book is Ksh 750
All other outlets are selling at that price then there is you who perhaps think the author who earns royalties from the same doesn’t know the cover price 😂😂😂
