Thanks for the explanation!

I did use the coupon, which was not as easy as I thought, given how many books fell into agency pricing. But I finally found something I'd been wanting. Of course, then I didn't really get 50% off....I don't much like the way they calculate discounts, as supposedly I already got the online discount. But I got a $1.50 off for something I wanted, so that's something.

I found Borders site slow and without as many choices and B&N and Amazon. I suspect I won't be buying a lot of e-books from them.
