Georestrictions are set by publishers and authors. MOST of the time prices are as well. If the publisher charges more to sell a book in the UK, AMazon's prices will be higher because they have less margin to play with.

The author/publisher owns the rights to various regions, not Amazon (unless they are the publisher.) We also set a base price. Amazon can choose to take a loss on that, but the higher the base price, the larger their loss would be.
