My ranks are staying where they would if sales were about normal, yet I've sold 1 each of 2 titles.
I wonder if it's just delayed because it's end of month/new month, and they rolled out that icky fancy new bar at the top.

Yep, something is rotten in the State of Denmark (oops, Amazon) I saw 30 sales for the 31st Jan and they have now disappeared. And nothing showing to date. Hmmmm.... Patience or Persistence needed? Maybe someone from Amazon could answer this thread?

Are your sales gone when you switch back to January? My January sales are still there and the numbers are correct.

None of my books are in select, but sales are off today too. As I recall, this has happened before right on the first of a new month. Let's hope things even out soon.

Gertie, no my January sales are not there either (do not appear to be correct anyway).

Not only are the brown bars rotten, but my ranking has plummeted big time.

I agree with Edward. I think it's Select titling that is wonky. Because my non-Select are reporting normally, my Select, wonky! In the extreme

I've been wondering if I should learn to love beige. Zippo for me. Non-select. But that might just be me :-(
On the other hand, I had a great month on Barnes & Noble in January. Go romance.

Hmm-yeah.
With only five reported downloads, I thought my freebie was a monumental failure and was choosing to lick my wounds and go and actually--y'know--write. I'm not a rankings junkie, so didn't even look at it it until just now, and it's ranked 59 in SF. So something is obviously happening.
OK. I feel better now.
*wonders when we'll get to see download numbers*

I prefer to believe that the people at Amazon are taking the day off in preparation for a big Groundhog Day celebration tomorrow. If the groundhog sees his shadow, I can't bear to think of what will happen to Amazon's servers.
I think you've nailed it! I've had 156 sales across 6 titles NONE of which are in Select and NOT ONE sale in a Select title. I don't know if this means anything or not but it seems odd.....

I just think everyone hates us. Nobody loves us. Might as well go and eat worms.
UK sales seem to be doing better than the US sales for me which is unusual. So I'm hoping not to have to eat worms and that it really IS a glitch.

Yes - Gone - all gone after Jan 28th. But I know I saw sales on 29th - 31st Jan because I had just come off my KDP Select Freebies and was watching the REAL sales like a bl---y hawk!

So sorry about your end of Jan sales gone missing.
I'm just keeping my January page open so I can bask in the glory of all those beautiful post-free sales.

Same here. Select book-no sales, non-select-sales. Must be a glitch.

If it is a glitch, will our sales be found and given to us? Or are they lost in the great abyss of Amazon?
PS. We Selectors are being punished. I knew this would happen. *doom*

Another sale and another borrow just showed up. All my sales (as few as there are) have been for Select books.

I was attributing it all to global warming, but I like the wonky angle much better.
