My unscientific way of seeing what effect this has on a price, is to see what pence are paid
Eg, Books that are £x.99, £2.99, £9.99 look like the price hasnt changed
Books that are £0.79, £x.32 or other odd looking numbers have had the discount
Very rough guide and i am sure there will be examples where this isnt the case

One I quoted above:

The second is goodereader, and he appears to regurgitate some of the times article stats, which is handy as the times article is behind a paywall:

I find the Times article particularly risible as the Times is published by one of the corporations that lobbied for the removal of VAT, which was always intended solely for the benefit of publishers. Bad Amazon!
So I take it back. I don't know that Amazon have increased their prices or not. Saying that, just the brief survey of prices between ebook.com and amazon.co.uk was eye opening. I thought Amazon kept their prices low. Apparently not.
