I know the publishers set the prices and I guess it must be pretty frustrating for Amazon to be stuck with this. It's crazy that the publishers think an ebook should sell for more than a real book. In terms of costs, there's no comparison, so I can't understand how they justify it.
Is there any reason why this happens? I honestly don't get it.
