Me too. There are certain books (mostly non-fiction) that never come down in price more than $1 or 2 and I buy those when I need them, but I've learned to simply add it to my wishlist and maybe someday the price will come down. If not, I have many other books I've purchased that I haven't read yet. I'll live.
It's kindof like paperbacks. In the 'old' days, the hardcover would come out and then 3 or 4 years later, the paperback would come out. I never bought the hardcover. I just learned to wait. I noticed for some of my authors, the hardcover and the ebook come out at the same price and a couple of years later, the ebook will be discounted. Don't know how that will work in the new model, but we'll just have to see. Some would say "get it at the library" but my library, although it has a large collection of ebooks/audiobooks, tends not to get science fiction.
