Subject: How can I control if my book is made available below the list price?
For the sake of this question assume that I am selling my book on my own via my personal website and also through Kindle Direct Publishing. Further suppose that I've set the list price the same everywhere. So, we have exactly two channels - my website and KDP.
Assuming that no new channels are added, and assuming I never change the price of the book on my personal website, will that ensure the price via KDP will also stay the same?
In other words, can amazon arbitrarily change the price of my book, or must this be done as a response to marketing in other, non-Amazon-related channels?
While we would like to guarantee your list price would not change in this scenario, our KDP Terms and Conditions state we retain discretion to determine our retail prices.
