Kobo ebook prices
I just received the 25% off weekend deal email from Kobo.

Browsing the ebooks on offer I saw "Whatever it is, I Don't like it" by Howard Jacobson.

Kobo says the list price is £19.00 and they are selling 28% off for £13.67,

When you look on the website of the publisher, Bloomsbury, the RRP for the HARDBACK is £18.99 but the ebook price is £8.99 !!!

So they are selling an ebook but quoting Hardback prices !

That looks like false advertising to me, how do they get away with it ?
