When bought from Book Depository or Fishpond (both free worldwide shipping), the prices are nearly identical to Kobo.
Thank you, Kobo, for helping me to see the light and return to real, physical books.

Books where the codes like PROMOCODE_40 won't work may work with the contest codes. Just bought a book like you said is coupon eligible, won't let me apply the PROMOCODE_40, but would let me apply one of the contest codes I have found here.
I am glad that electronic books are available... I work in a university in China where ordering textbooks or books for the library usually take 2 to 3 months becoz the books have to go through censorship.
