Thanks guys - I'll go back to buying paperbacks and getting my favourite UK site to send them to me free of charge instead of letting me save THEM money by agreeing to sell me the ebook. It is just the most bizarre situation. Surely they must realise this costs them money, but they obviously don't care. I am ready to throw my ereader in the bin, I have wasted almost the entire weekend trying to buy books I want and finding I no longer can. But I love my ereader and I WANT to give people money, please publishers and booksellers - let me buy your books!
