Alex
Suns seems to still be doing quite well on amazon still being at the 6500 mark, but i find it strage that they are marketing the Hardback at £6.59 and the advance sales of the Paperback at £6.99.

Has the book gone out in the USA at all? or any other country?

that is odd, although I think the pricing strategy will be entirely down to Amazon. I imagine they get an appallingly huge trade discount allowing them to price the hardback cheaper than many books and mortar retailers can sell paperbacks at...and still make a killing.

I suppose it could be the result of the printing they are on. If the hardback has gone on to a second printing, the first paperback edition might be more in demand and therefore more expensive.

I'm guessing!
