Price is ultimately a factor for everyone, some readers pain tolerance is just higher than others. I won't pay over five dollars for an unknown author but will pay more for a book I definitely want.
The question for me is what is a reasonable entry level price for an unknown author in the Mystery/Detective/Thriller categories, with a book of 75,000 plus words? Should they be content to charge $.99 or can they reasonably push for up to $2.99?
