I don't even buy books at the $9.99 price point, as I have been fortunate enough to find most of what I want to read for $6.00 or less (and I love the classics.) I have over 60 books that I have yet to read. I read 2-3 books concurrently so I imagine that I'll chip away at this but not fast enough to justify spending $12-$15 for a new book. There are VERY FEW books that I've ever had to have upon first release, but there have been some. Those were usually heavily discounted, though. I can't recall ever spending face price for a hardcover. I can definitely wait.
