Except for the brief, Amazon $9.99 best-seller period, I haven't noticed much of a change with best-sellers either. Pre-Amazon, new-release ebooks were typically the same as the hardcover price (followed by the thankfully brief windowing experiment). Then we had the $9.99 (for certain best-sellers) period before Agency put the prices right back where they were. A small dip when Agency was "repealed," and then one by one, publishers went back to slightly-less-than-discounted-hardcovers; where we are now.
So except for a few up and down blips, I've been paying about $12-16 for new-release Big5 ebooks almost all along. *shrug*
