I agree too, but this particular example isn't usual. The book in question was bought from a marketplace seller, meaning it's either used or a remainder copy. The Kindle edition is the same price Amazon sells the remainder book for & cheaper than the book in PB costs new & discounted from Amazon.

You'll probably always be able to buy a used or remainder copy for less than an ebook, which is going to have its price based on the current new paper version from the publisher in most cases.
