Its frustrating that the same book costs $2 is india and $10 in USA and the print edition is $7. Stupid price grab by Amazon and publishers since there is no real printing costs for digital.

Definitely watch this space. iam not sure copyright holders will agree to selling books into india if this loophole exists. iam expecting amazon to do address or identity validations in future, or at worst indians will lose reduced price (via amazon)?

You must add a valid address just search Google for the format. Best of luck.

Prices are part of advertising psychology, they don't reflect costs to produce the product! This is a common misconception. For maximizing revenue, it makes sense for all companies to sell their products in poorer countries for lower prices. It’s regular practice to have different prices for different countries.

Spending power in India was historically lower so what the publishers did was produce cheaper paperbacks. The quality of printing, covers, etc. was also always lower than equivalent international editions in the US/UK/etc. However, since people got used to lower prices Amazon has no choice but to price Kindle books at the same level - why would anyone buy a digital book if it were more expensive than a paperback ? Well, lucky for us that paper quality, cover quality, type quality, etc. are not issues in the digital age! :) My guess is: Pretty much because of market forces.

The price is really half or much less than others in your photos. Thanks for the tip, I may try that and see if it works.
