I refuse to spend more than 10$. And more than paperback/mass market paperback price.

I've only bought about 4 books above 10$. I prefer to wait 'til the price drops or even buing the physical book if the price won't budge.
In my opinion 10 is an entirely arbitrary limit (it may make sense because of our love for decimal figures). My rule of thumb would be something like:
Price for paperback minus X%.
X could be variable: Small or even "0" shortly after initial release. Getting bigger over time. Ending somewhere in the range of 20%.
