Amazon has the freedom to set their cut however they like and use that to leverage the publisher into a set of prices.

If you price from 2.99-9.99, you get 70% of the price.

If you price below 2.99 or above 9.99, you get 35%.
But, do your books show up at any other shop other then Amazon? I know you can submit to Smashwords, but I am not always happy with the results from the meatgrinder there. So is there any place you can submit your books to other then Amazon or Smashwords where you can hand craft the eBooks to make sure they do come out nicely formatted for those of us that do not have Kindles?
