Would someone please run a price check on two Kindle books at Amazon for me?

1. Nalini Singh's "Slave To Sensation" (~$12)
2. Nora Roberts' "The Last Boyfriend" (~$17)

I'd like a price check from:
a) the US,
b) somewhere in the world that isn't Australia.

Call it morbid curiosity.

eta: Thank you to [personal profile] evil_plotbunny and [livejournal.com profile] marag for getting back to me so promptly!

In Canada:

1. $10
2. $12

'Cause I guess it's that much cheaper to ship to Canada than Australia? /sarcastic

It's an ongoing battle here, although I know you have it worse. A lot of the physical products we get carry U.S. and Canadian prices on the tags or covers. Now that our dollar is nearly on par with the U.S. dollar, people have started complaining about how much higher our prices are, and manufacturers have responded by altering the tags on some goods so that the U.S. prices can be torn off before they're put on the shelves in Canada. Because that makes us feel so much better.
