I honestly would like to know the strategy behind that. Well, they are not getting my money at the current price.

These books should of course be in the public domain by now, since Mr. MacDonald passed away 26 years ago (RIP),but of course that is a whole other argument...
I have all the paperbacks already so the cost for them is 0 for me. I would still start to buy the ebooks for re-reading the series for the prices quoted above if they allowed me to buy them.
