I visited CyberRead.com to do a bit of pricing. Is it just me or is whole “cyber” thing getting old. When’s the last time you told someone you’d look for them in cyberspace. If you ever did.
Anyway, not to get picky (I just don’t want to imagine cyberbooks!) but I strolled through the cyberstore looking for cyberprices (Couldn’t resist) and ran my now familiar test products first and found them pricier than I expected.
New Moon by Stephenie Meyer $12.99
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman $17.99
Their “Best Sellers” run from
1491 by Charles C. Mann at $9.99
To Stephen King’s Duma Key at $16.99
to $20.95 for the gag inducing A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity by Bill O’Reilly
and Bob Woodward’s Thriller, The War Within: A Secret White House History 2006-2008 for just $24.99. (Ambien’s cheaper…)
CyberRead offers eBooks in four formats: Mobipocket Reader, a universal eBook Reader for Windows computers, SmartPhones and most PDA’s; Microsoft Reader, for Windows-based desktop and laptop; Adobe Reader, the global standard for electronic document sharing; and Office Word 2007.

Hey! If you want to pay for re-branding our site and then figure out how to make sure Google and other search engines see the new brand as important….just let me know.

Price is only one aspect of being a retailer. Our primary concern is taking care of our existing and new customers. Instead of focusing on creating fancy pricing tools and promotions, we have focused on making the site easy to use and making customer support outstanding.
I wish we could do everything at once, but time and funding do not permit.
All the pricing stuff is coming into focus, especially for our existing customers. But those that choose to shop at CyberRead will often find a “nice surprise” from their interactions with our service from time to time.
