Dymocks can certainly now put the screws on those that pissed them off the most over parallel importing, anyway.
I am so fed up with the big Australian booksellers/publishers that I am not going to buy any more ebooks from them until they get their act together and all p-books are going to be purchased from Amazon. I bought a music book from them (Amazon) last week - $21 inc.postage, and the cheapest I could see it in Australia was $37 + postage. Get real guys! And if you think novels are overpriced, try buying music books!
