Thanks. If Amazon fails at getting the wholesale price reduced and ends up with Agency, they can still sell the books lower than what the publishers want and still make a profit.
  • $12.99 retail ($9.09 wholesale) + free $2 ~ $3 Kindle credit = $9.99 ~ $10.99
  • $14.99 retail ($10.49 wholesale) + free $3 ~ $4 Kindle credit = $10.99 ~ $11.99
