Here's something revealing:

The US Amazon.com price on Neil Gaiman's "American Gods" is $7.59.

When I go to BOB and click on the "buy for Kindle" button, I'm redirected to US Amazon.com and the price is $6.99.

Apparently Amazon is punishing its own customers for shopping from Amazon first, but rewarding people who shop around to compare prices, and who are then redirected to their own website.

This is good to know, and I'm going to start making even more use of the Calibre compare prices function.
