For me, Ill get the eBook and if one is not available or is not available at a decent price, I'll try to get it from the library. If the library does not have the book as an eBook and a pBook, I'll see how much it is from the bookshop and if it's not hardcover or one of those awful trade but a standard paperback with a $7.99 retail price, I'll get the pBook. This is for a book that I want to read now. if I can wait, I'll wait and maybe get a coupon in email from Borders for 25% or so off.
