Hmnn. In Canada, the paperback of that Christie novel is available from both Chapters and Amazon.ca for $7.65 (reduced from a MSRP of $8.50). The e-book, from both Kobo & Amazon.ca, is $7.99 CDN.
It's a little annoying that the paperback is $0.34 cheaper. But it doesn't bother me too much. Cover price on the paperback is $8.50, I'm still getting a discount. Not as much as I would with paper, but at least it's a discount and the product is in my preferred format.
Things are a bit better with, for example, Terry Brooks' latest paperbound, The High Druid's Blade. Chapters & Amazon.ca have it for $9.49, reduced from $9.99. The e-book is $8.99 from both Kobo & Amazon.ca.
I think it boils down to this for me: if the e-book is close to the MMPB, I don't feel ripped off. Preferably, it should be a little less as some of the costs aren't there. But as long as it's close, I'm OK.
