When browsing the Kindle ebook store, and sorting on price: low to high, there will be a few books among the free ones with a non-zero price. Such as $9.99 for "iPad Publishing Guide: Write, Publish and Sell Your Book on the Apple iPad with FastPencil" by Michael Ashley, or $39.99 for "15 Successful Communications Lessons (Collection)" by FT Press Delivers. Maybe it is sorting the books on the US price, but displaying the non-US price? Maybe someone can check whether these are free in other markets? These non-free books usually turn up within the first few pages of the sorted list.
