Several others are now Kindle exclusives. It's a good thing you discovered them beforehand.
When I bought Tuttle's books, the first ones in each of the series was free. The subsequent books were $3.99-$5.99. This was several years ago. I never would have bought any of his books without the free ones to get me to try them, but once I read them, I was writing him and asking when the next in the series would be available. I would pay $5.99 for his books today, because I enjoyed them.

And yes, it is a good thing I discovered Tuttle before the Amazon exclusivity; I would not have bought any from Amazon.

But this also demonstrates my point. A good indie author can expect readers to pay a fair sum for their books once they get the reader hooked.
