Point pricing seems to vary a bit. My first test case is a $2.99 novella that'll cost me 8000 points, but I've seen other books that range up to 27,000 and even over 40,000 points each, so take that with a shaker of salt. This is very much a "dip my toe in to test the waters" experiment...but considering I've got over 410K points banked at the moment, it's not like I'm risking much.
Hmm... so you have about $100 worth of points. I can see the temptation!

But try to treat it like cash. Don't buy an ebook just because it's available, only buy because you really want it, and it's a good deal.
