I have only purchased eBooks through Sony's online store. Those have been in line with Tankobon (small sized paperbacks, designed to fit in a pocket). For DTB the publisher sets the price, printed on the book, and the bookseller receives a percentage. Large scale bookseller receives larger percentages. The market is very much controlled by a few very large publishing houses.
