Dymocks say they are partners with google books (Australia). Just having a look at both sites and the price for the books
"The Slap" Dymocks $24.99.... Google $9.18
"the Distant Hours" $23.99 .... Google $9.18

so how does this so callled partnership work?..
It's odd. Using the original post's link to Dymocks then clicking on their google books button I get the Marieke Hardy ebook at $29.99.

But using the direct link to Google Australia that you provided, I find the same ebook for only $7.29.
