Yet Another Craptastic Feature of the Sony eBookstore

Apparently, now it's going to overcharge for books, too!

Haha, I was just browsing the eBookstore, and saw that the Romona the Pest bundle is listed for $39.92, and the eBookstore is selling it for the bargain price of... $42.95. Thanks, Sony! That sure is a bargain!

Wow! I already added that to my cart! I'm going to purchase it before they realize their mistake and change it!

Still no where near the mark up they get for works available at Project Gutenberg.

The Sony versions of PD books used to be free (do they still do that? my coupon is still good), the others you see are from tons of different publishers trying to make easy money.

I'm sure it's just an error, send them an email. I still love them for that Women Sleuths bundle ($5.69 for 3 books, and you could only buy one for that price separately).
