Can anyone give me a run down on Kobo as a UK ebook vendor ?
I checked various recent purchases and Kindle was cheaper on every one and some were not available.
Of course I got many of these /because/ Amazon was discounting them.
I see (Tor) At the Sign of Triumph by David Weber at £10.44 at Amazon & Google, £10.99 at Apple, £13.91 at Kobo.
Is this representative?

It used to be representative, but it is pretty uncommon nowadays. They all track each other's prices fairly closely IME.
However, Kobo also have a price matching guarantee. If you buy from Kobo, find it elsewhere for less, Kobo will give you credit for the difference +10%. This way they're effectively always cheaper.
The price matching guarantee link is at the bottom of the (very long, so keep scrolling) home page.
