Fictionwise goes to $9.95
From an email from Fictionwise today:

Quote:
THOUSANDS OF 9.95 BUYWISE CLUB SPECIALS!

Cool: every single Secure eBook released in the past 3 months now has
enough of a Micropay Rebate to make the effective cost no more than
$9.95 for all Buywise Club members. That's over a thousand great
titles! Rebates of 30% or more require payment by credit or PayPal.

Even non-Buywise members get these rebates, although without the club
discounts the effective price won't be as low as $9.95. But still,
it's a great deal for everyone!
So Amazon's pricing has impacted even Fictionwise.

Doesn't help for older ebooks, I guess. My litmus test remains Charles de Lint's The Onion Girl at US$19.01 on FictionWise WITH the club pricing and micropay rebate. Again, the paper list price is $14.95, Amazon's paper price is $10.85, and the Kindle price is $9.95.

Oh well, maybe even de Lint's works will get lower in price on other vendor sites eventually.

I'm surprised it's available at all. TOR's support of ebooks sucks at the moment, too bad nothing seems to be happening on their supposed resurrected deal with Baen/Webscriptions.

mmm Patricia Cornwell's book, Predator is still selling at $18.33 with discounts and micropay. I purchased from mobipocket for $9.99. Her most recent book is selling for $9.99 on fictionswise. Odd pricing policy happening there.
