There is some strange pricing about, I think some of it is just publishers experimenting, but price is metadata and since there are lots of mistakes in other ebook metadata I suspect a lot of strange prices are metadata mistakes too.
I've emailed the publisher sometimes when a book I want to buy seems unusually expensive (like a book in the middle of a series priced at $16.99 when the rest of the series is $10.99), sometimes it works and they fix the pricing mistake, not always but often enough to make it worthwhile trying if it is a big price difference.
