Maybe $5 / €4.50 vs 50c for me. But typical non-discount retail here is €12 to €20.
I can sell at €12 and make more profit on POD than ebooks.

Anyway, if it's out of print, and wanted, people do pay a premium, see prices of S/H popular titles out of print.

Then if the demand rises they can do a 1000 to 10,000 conventional print run. Same files if the same size page & font.
