I received a message (through Bonanza) tonight asking about a book that I have had on reserve since last September. When I clicked on the link provided in the email for the item, it takes me to the item but there’s a message at the top saying it’s preview only, and I’m the only one that can see it. It doesn’t show up in my booth, so how did the person who sent the message see it?

If the item has ever been tweeted or pinned or Facebooked, that link is still out there…they probably asked about it because they saw it somewhere else, but you did not have it active in your booth when they clicked on the link…
You see the preview, because you are logged in, but they probably got the “Whoops” message…and therefore asked you about it

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
