Just got my iPad, no books in the aussie iBooks yet so I went searching fro my first ebook. Inkmesh had a nice list of desireable books so I selected one with cost shown as $7. And ran straight into the " not available to Australian buyers" problem.

OK, lets play nice , at least for now. Borders have opened their online site here so lets see. And the same book is listed at $29 !!!

That is nothing more than a blatant price gouge and totally unjustified.

I will now dig deeper into the MR forum and learn how to get my books at a fair price. What a joke!!
