With the discount codes I used with Kobo, I bought the 4 books for a total of $31.00. I have some issues with the formatting and conversion (page breaks). But I could live with them.

I have a friend though who insists on buying only from Amazon even though I mentioned the codes and price difference to him. I don't fully get it. I told him to try to convince me to do the same. Because really, I want to buy from just one store. I want to buy books using only my device and wifi. I want my highlights and notes backed up. I want immaculate formatting. But do those features amount to almost 50% of the price? I'm still not convinced.
I just looked and the books are $11.99 from Amazon in the U.S. You haven't told us where you are but I'm guessing, and it's just a guess, Canada.

Why in the world would you challenge him to convince you of anything? Do what you want? Buy a Kobo and forget about it.
