#bookishpetpeeves Lately my biggest bookish peeve is with Amazon and their e-book pricing. I'm sure there is an explanation behind it like publishers set the pricing, etc. but I find it ridiculous when the e-book costs more than the physical version, even the hardcover! #wtfamazon #marchintoreading

LauraBeth I don't understand the method to their madness either! 8y
Marchpane I think it's just because they have more competition when it comes to print books. Kindle users are pretty well locked in to buying from amazon. But with print books, you can shop around, therefore discounting makes more sense as a strategy. 8y
Ashley_Nicoletto 🙌🏼 yes. Yes. Yes. The ebook pricing is ridiculous. 8y
Suetara It's my understanding that the publishers set the pricing. But, I agree that the e-book prices are ridiculous. 8y
Velvetsun This drives me crazy! Part of the reason i got a kindle in the first place was because the books would be cheaper than physical copies. Ugh. 8y

My_novel_obsession I have noticed this ALOT lately... Ebooks priced above the paperback price and sometimes more than the hardcover...absolutely ridiculous. My ebook purchases have definitely declined! 8y
Notafraidofwords So annoying. 8y

Lindy Jeff and @rebeccaschinsky were talking about examples of this on the most recent Book Riot podcast. (edited) 8y
