An interesting dilemma... IngramSpark vs Amazon (Patreon)

Hey everybody! Hope you are doing fine! ❤️
Today, I want to discuss something very important, but also very anxiety inducing to say the least... So as you can see, I finally received a proof copy from Amazon too (the hardcover version was by Ingramspark, printed in the UK), and damn, the print and paper quality of the interior is sooo different, I cant even believe myself that it was printed from the same file! The Amazon version is just so much better in all aspects, while the Ingram version is dull and the colors are just sooo light compared to what it should be, it makes me kinda furious. I really like the dust jacket and I would love to have one for the book(Amazon doesnt offer jackets yet unfortunately), but if the overall quality of the book is so bad it simply doesnt worth it :(
So I just uploaded the revised hardcover file and ordered a proof copy from Amazon too -- we will see how their hardcover looks, but if the quality stays the same, we may have to say goodbye to the dust jacket :( Maybe I can figure out something to have the dustjacket included in the Founders Boxes 🤔

What do you think?

I tried to take some good comparison photos, but I will probably make a video too once the Amazon hardcover arrives.
