Not being one to let go easily, I had another go at Borders on this issue. After receiving another polite but vague response from their customer service team, I thought I'd check if the price of Stephen Fry's latest had come down. It appears it has and it hasn't: I can now buy the book here
http://www.borders.com.au/ebook/the-...cles/13492209/ for $26.11 or here
http://www.borders.com.au/ebook/the-...cles/13858353/ for $22.25 (which is cheaper than the paper version!). It is fair to say that Borders pricing strategy remains a mystery to me
I don't want to sound too harsh though - all in all Borders/REDgroup are doing a great job of establishing an ebook store here in Australia. I wish them the best!
