I don't often spend more than $8 for ANY fiction books, be it p or e, but will spend more when it's a book I really want to read NOW and not wait for a price drop. I prefer to not pay more for an ebook than what it's paper counterpart is going for. Of course I rarely bought fiction hardcovers in my pre-ebook days either (maybe 7-8 a year), the price keeps going up while the quality of the paper and binding has gone down. I don't think the idea that the digital version should cost about half is realistic in any way, except maybe when we're talking a p version that is POD.

Don't care that I can't sell an ebook, but never sold pbooks, other than some specific reference type works, either. The used stores around here have piles of fiction and pay next to nothing, not worth the hassle and eBay is a PITA. The thrift shops often have piles of stuff already and don't want more so many donations just get dumped in their recycling dumpster. I loan my ebooks all the time by putting them on one of my older readers and loaning the device as well as the book(s).

I love the space saving (my entire house is under 700 sq. ft.) and convenience of eBooks.
