This quarter marked the release of AiO in PDF. 5 sites were chosen for this release: DrivethruRPG, Lulu, Paizo, RPGNow, and YourGamesNow. As you can see, they did not all perform equally. Print was the preferred format over at Lulu for some time. And this is the only sale I ever logged over at YourGamesNow. The only reason I haven't stopped selling there is that it's more effort to remove it than to keep it up.
Lulu Print showed a bump in August due to my first "Ozma's Birthday Sale" and the kind folks over at the RPG Circus podcast announcing it. 5 copies were sold during that time at the discounted rate.
The big news this quarter in terms of sales is One Book Shelf. Although it was only an active vendor for one month of this quarter, it very quickly moved in to the #2 position in terms of all time sales. It would eventually surpass Lulu, but that's a story for another time.

One Book Shelf is the company that operates RPGNow and DrivethruRPG. Both sites use the same back end, so my sales data from them is not separated by site.

I still consider my Lulu print copy money well spent.
So no sales through Paizo in this quarter?
I buy all of my digital games through eitherDrive Thru or RPG Now, I actually have a hard time differentiating...
Paizo has been a pretty weak outlet for me. If it weren't for YGN, it would be my lowest-selling vendor. They're really well set-up to sell Pathfinder compatible products, but other stuff has a harder time finding customers.
