That's not necessarily true when the publishers set the price. I preordered the latest Tom Clancy ebook and paid the highest price. I would have anyway as I wanted to read it right away, and don't mind the $2 premium I paid for not waiting a couple weeks.

Still, I've now learned that "pre-Ordered" does NOT mean "best price". Same thing happened with a Harry Potter book. I preordered for around $20 only to find out it was available everywhere in huge quantities for $17 on opening day.
