Amazon Responds
By Harry McCracken | Monday, June 21, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Well that was quick! For a few hours this morning, Barnes & Noble’s 3G Nook cost $70 less than a Kindle. Now the Kindle is ten bucks less than the Nook. Wonder what the chances are that B&N will match or undercut the Kindle’s new $189 pricetag? (It may not need to, given that it’s also announced a $149 version of the Nook.)

Borders Sort of Responds to the E-Reader Price Wars. You Out There, Sony? Says:
June 22nd, 2010 at 2:24 pm[…] B&N cut the Nook’s price to $199 and introduced a $149 model, and Amazon responded by knocking the Kindle down to $189. The Kobo is still a cheap e-reader, but not strikingly so–especially considering that it has […]

The Big Kindle Gets Better and Cheaper Says:
July 1st, 2010 at 10:13 am[…] the price premium over the smaller Kindle keeps growing–it started out costing $130 more, but last month’s Kindle price cut left the DX costing $300 more than the little guy. Oh, and the DX cost only $10 less than the […]

We are approaching the “magic price,” at least according to Forrester’s research from last year:https://www.technologizer.com/2009/09/03/hey-amazon-and-sony-its-time-for-a-price-drop/

I bought a $259 Nook yesterday (Sunday) as a gift for my father, enticed by an offer for a “free” $50 gift card. When I saw the price today, I called to see if I could get the difference back. I was told I could get only $10 back. It turns out, after looking at my receipt, they didn’t charge me for a $259 Nook and then give me a “free” $50 gift card, as advertised. They gave me a $209 Nook and charged me $50 for the gift card. Was I just shafted by Barnes & Noble? Harry, help an old friend!!!
