I barely read fiction, but I read MS-SQL and database books a lot! It is very rare to find such type of books for less than 15 dollars. And some can be as expensive as 40, even more (talking about ebook version, paper version can be as expensive as 100 bucks)

So, on such cases, I find very difficult for an author to go below 10 dollars. At least, I have not seen anything on Amazon on that price. If you find one, is just crap (or too old), bad content or poorly edited. On my experience, very well known writers on that area will never publish anything so cheap.

Here, you are paying for valuable knowledge which is also related to current technology. The capacity to write a good book, quick enough for what you need now, is what dictates the price, in my opinion.
