You've already found the book you want and you're holding it in your hand. If he wants to 'improve the buying experience' he needs to make the link between browsing in his physical stores and getting the ebook on your reader as quick and easy as possible.

A QR code on the back of the pbook is what every sane publisher has to do, and ASAP... Then again, chances of this happening any time soon...
