I shipped a $60 book 2 weeks ago. The payout date keeps changing and getting extended.

Am I reading things right that the problem is that the buyer hasn't paid so i don't get paid? Since when is this ok?

I'm out an expemsive book. I'm out the shipping cost (double the reimbursement). I believe I'm out amazon fees. I didn't sign up to give stuff away and pay for shipping.

I want to opt out of whatever this insane program is. I want my money IMMEDiATELY
