I have done it in the past. I don't do it nearly as often now because I've just gotten tired of playing the pricing and availability games over and over with some of the publishers and authors. I was considering it last week with a book that is currently available in the UK that I could get from Amazon for $5.41 and have been reading it over the weekend.

Or I can wait for the US version that is coming mid-September and pay $9.99. US doesn't have it the worst though because I saw a few regions who are going to be paying up to $12.99.

But I just decided to wait because since my library has every other title in this series I imagine they'll get this one and so I'll read their copy and pay nothing.

This topic has always kind of fascinated me. If I wanted to I could have ordered a paper book from Amazon.UK and had it shipped to my home and nobody would be telling me that's immoral and there'd be no claims that Amazon will close my account if the "catch me."
