Oops! I forgot about that. I'd expect the publisher (in this case, Pottermore), to absorb the cost though.

Personally, I wouldn't (I hope) pay any more than the prices I've listed. I think a third off the retail price of the print books is fair. (I think it should be nearer 40%-50%, but given that Agency pricing has led to lots of eBooks costing as much as their paperback equivalents, and taking into account unfair taxes, I think a third off is at least fairer.)
