I remember back to the good old days BEFORE the Agency Model :-)
I remember the struggle that happened with the publishers and Amazon when they were trying to see which side would win out. At first I didn't think all that much about it but as the days went on I realized that there are times when I will pay more for a book that I really want and there are times where I can wait for the book to fall in price.
For the most part if the book is by an author unknown to me, I wait for the price to fall at or below paperback price. If the author is known and it is one of the series I am reading then I may pay a little more. The times when I will usually spend over $10 for an e-book is for a non-fiction book. Many of my non-fiction purchases have a lot of research put into them and I have no problem paying more for that work.
That was pretty much the same strategy that I had with DTBs also. Usually the non-fiction books don't fall in price but the fiction books will fall in price depending on the amount of time it has been on the market. The bargain table usually has some decent deals that will entice me to try a new author.
