Title: Commodore: a Company on the Edge eBook Update
Post by: Pentad on January 19, 2012, 04:11:19 AM
From Brain Bagnall:

Just a heads up that the eBook price for "Commodore: a Company on the Edge" will be changing in about two weeks.

Currently it is listed on Kindle for $9.99, but a distributor will be taking over duties for distributing the book across all eBook formats in the future (including the Apple book store, Kobo, Sony eReader, etc) and they will be setting the price from now on. They are discussing something in the neighborhood of $19.99, although usually eBook sellers like Kindle offer a large discount, so the final price might be something like $12.99 (but that is just a rough guess).

Anyway, I wanted to warn the community so no one is caught off guard about the change. I hope everyone who has read the book has enjoyed it!

Well who really cares, when the next book comes out about the Amiga computer real soon now!
 
Probably trying to get rid of old stock, by saying "you better grab it before the price goes up" sales tactic.

@TG

LOL!  They're talking about the eBook - there are no stock levels... =)

BTW - I own both versions of the book.  A good read...

Just finished it myself (Christmas gift...).
It was all papery and hardbackish tho...
And when I slide my finger over the page to turn it, the page just sits there..
I have to actually TURN the page..  Weird..

Weighed 3 times more (at least) than my tablet..  Oh well, still a good read.
