List Price: $29.95
Reduced Price: $3.99
You Save: $25.96 (87%)"

Errr... Except you can't get this offer if you did not buy the book, so the "you save" tag is completely bogus.

As I said, not a big one. STILL.
The only "STILL" here appears to be an inability to do basic mathematics.

If you choose to buy the audiobook you can buy it for $3.99, rather than $29.95. A saving of $25.96 on a price of $29.95 is indeed 87%.

What's the problem?
