Victims my ass. If you are charging those insane prices for books, you are limiting your customer base. Especially during a massive depression. Cut back on the price, $21 at BN in the US sure seems to move a good deal of GRR Martin's book. Somehow or another I think close to €50 is a bit overpriced.

It is a basic principle of economics, price things were you can move the most of a good and make a profit. I think Spanish booksellers and the folks who set book prices missed that day in class.

Drop Your prices, decrease the tax, sell more books, make more money, collect more taxes.
