The list price for Forever Friends is now on amazon.com at an amazing $9.99

This is obviously a mistake! I recommend you get your orders in now before the mistake is spotted:

Happy shopping!

Shelagh,
I placed an order and it was confirmed. Therefore I assume they must honor it.
If they screwed up, they got what they deserve for a change.

It further goes to prove the point we have been discussing for a long time about pricing. Reasonably priced books will increase sales.

Hi Abe,

I could not have predicted this. The Power of Persuasion is listed at $22.50 and I set the price at £10.49 on lulu.com, so amazon don't always make this kind of mistake. I think everyone should take advantage ot this; if the orders are cancelled, amazon are duty bound to refund the money in full.

For anyone buying in the UK, I checked and it would be cheaper to buy from amazon.com, even with the added shipping cost.

I just ordered copies--at this price I can give the gift of reading to even more folks on my list!

That is really neat! I am wondering why I can't do the same through Amazon.ca and avoid paying the duty that gets levied when I order from Amazon.com, but it isn't available on Amazon.ca. Hmm. Anything that we can do Shelagh?
