I guess I was the one being "snarky." Sorry. I know you can get good deals waiting for a sale (or buying series bundles, etc.) and I look for these. But if new novels were still $10, the publishers would get a lot more business from me.

I wonder if anyone in the publishing business has considered selling eBook novels for $15 (or whatever the current price is) until the paperback version came out and then dropping that eBook to $10. Then those who wanted the book early (as they used to with hardbacks) could pay the higher price and those who traditionally waited for the paperback book's release could pay a "paperback" weighted price for the eBook.
