Now, Stephen King is on the Daily Steal at 25% off list price - which is fair enough - but if you were to take 25% of the original price it would be $5.25

So how come only a day or two after release they have dropped the price to $3.68 ....... next time I will just wait for release rather than pre-purchasing.
The reason to pre-purchase any product is guarantee you will get the product on it's release date since most product have a limited stock. With eBooks there is no such concept as limited stock. There is no reason at all to pre-purchase an eBook, unless there is a promo going on.
