[edit] Net-90
Net-90 invoicing is a common form of Bill of Sale in retail publishing. Nearly all general book retail in the United States is sold using Net-30, Net-45, or Net-90 invoicing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Susiequesie (talk • contribs)
- That doesn't explain anything about why you want this article deleted. What's your rationale for deletion of this article, based in Wikipedia:Deletion policy, exactly? Uncle G (talk) 04:37, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- The article claims Mr Ball created "Net-90" as a system of business when it is not and he did not. Nothing about the article was correct, accurate, or cited (or noteworthy if the other three had been). I worked with Mr Ball and his company and nothing about his invoicing model was different than any other book reseller would have been given by the major houses, excepting possibly a more generous credit line. That's this New York lady's opinion anyway. Perhaps you will disagree. --Susiequesie (talk) 05:36, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Why, exactly, is boldly editing the article to become correct, accurate, and cited, per Wikipedia:Deletion policy, not an option? Uncle G (talk) 10:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

- Delete without prejudice. I hesitate to supply a rationale when none is given, but this unreferenced article does seem to be about a non-notable business method that apparently involves purchasing goods on credit and reselling them for cash. It also seems to be part of a promotional walled garden involving Rich Ball and The Page's Edge. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete as non-notable. Already better covered by Discounts and allowances, by this logic we should have Net-15, Net-30 and Net-60 as they are more common in industry. Burzmali (talk) 17:18, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. Agreed it is better covered, as noted above. --SilyOlPooh (talk) 07:49, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
