In that case, I'd assume that the reviews are especially important to you. I usually go the reverse way: I decide if the price is what I want to spend for an e-book (keeping in mind what kind of e-book it is, as many times reference is priced higher than fiction) and then I look to reviews to tell me if this book is a reasonable use of that money.

Either way, I don't think the one-star reviews (based solely on price) factor very highly into the equation.
