So, thanks to the Deals forum, I found out that amazon.ca had The Dragonbone Chair on sale for $1.99 CDN. Usually, as Canada is mostly an Agency country, that sale would also be on Kobo. Not this time.

So, as I also needed The Stone of Farewell in ebook format (I had picked up the third book, To Green Angel Tower, on a great sale a while back) I decided to try price match for the first time.

Submitted the request, figuring I'd hear back in a day or two.

I heard back in less than 15 minutes.

This was after 11pm (EDT). On a Sunday.

It came as a very pleasant surprise. I quickly used my credit to buy The Stone of Farewell, and now am happy to have both books I needed for a grand total of $13.01 CDN after taxes.
