It's pretty easy to find cases where Kobo is significantly more expensive than Amazon, Google, and most other sellers in the UK. Some examples (mostly science fiction from the big publishers) are below.

In fact it is hard to find cases where Kobo is *cheaper* :-( Your coupons never apply to these books, and your base prices are way too high.

e.g. "The Abyss Beyond Dreams: A Novel of the Commonwealth" - Peter F. Hamilton is £7.59 from Google, £7.99 from Apple, and £10.43 from Kobo.

e.g. "The Long Mars:" - Terry Pratchett is £6.64 from Google, and £9.99 from Kobo and most other stores.

e.g. "No Angel : The Secret Life of Bernie Ecclestone" - Tom Bower is £4.19 from Google, £4.99 from Apple, and £6.11 from Kobo.
