Whatever it is, it seems to be quite variable. The first day showed items more expensive than Amazon, has later dropped back in price.

I have seen a "legitimate" reseller here in Australia selling my paperback for $8 over the RRP - I feel like writing to them and asking for my cut. I checked out a few other books and they're over-pricing lots of books, even traditionally published stuff. Maybe it's so they can offer "free delivery".

andreabc, thanks for that note. I know quite a few people who purchase through The Book Depository, so they're definitely one of the places I want to be available.
