Physical booksellers in the UK actually do generally charge the cover price for most books. Sure, they might have special offers on the latest bestseller, or have a "three for the price of two" offer for paperbacks, or something of the sort, but if you go in and buy a book, you will, generally speaking, pay the price that's printed on the cover.
