I've been trying to shine a light on this issue since they attempted to charge me extra $2.35 for every single ebook (even when buying in bulk) roughly 2 years ago. I immediately stopped purchasing ebooks on Amazon and buy elsewhere instead (other stores will even send the book to my Kindle device for free). Very bad business behavior on Amazon's part.
Hi Erica, I guess with most people buying from the US it does not make a difference, sad really- This is pretty much the only issue i have with Amazon as other issues they have handled extremely well and TBH, I still buy product from them and am even a Prime customer. But this is upsetting, even the authors know nothing about this "charge" , i could kinda live with it if the authors were getting a cut of this $2 but they do not. I just do not understand it???? Regards David

Hi. Any suggestions on where else to buy books? Thanks
