Yes, but I've almost* never paid full price for trade paperbacks because the retailers have the option to discount.
(Occasionally, when I visit an independent store that I like, I will buy a book or two at full price because for its paying for the shopping experience as much as the book. Same for other types of independent retailers because I hate how they are disappearing and would rather shop on-line than visit a big box store)
