I can believe that. I've bought a couple of 99 cent books that I wouldn't have bought if they had been more expensive. They turned out to be crap, so those authors won't be making any more money from me, but at least they got a couple of $$. An I don't get too upset to find out that 99 cent book wasn't even worth that much. For crying out loud, it's about the price of a candy bar, and a lot less unhealthy.

I have bought one book at around $10 because it was a book I really, really wanted. In general I'd say that probably a few $$ more than I want to spend on fiction eBooks.

(I borrow loads from libraries, so I actually buy very few books)
