Review your monitoring of KOBO
As far as I can tell, Kobo.com lists my book with the price denominated in UK pounds. The price is correct. (£5.49 list price). BUT your website says my e-book is available in the USA for $5.49 (less, I suppose the VAT). My book is beginning to be listed at $5.49 or thereabouts in different places and this is triggering price-matching, ratcheting the price of my book down. Is there a bug in your search algorithm? Should I tell Kobo about this or you? This is causing me serious grief trying to get to the heart of the matter. Thanks for investigating. The ISBN of my e-book is: 9781904585459. Rod Shelton.
Hi Rod
I’m flattered that you think Kobo use Luzme to set their prices; if they do, then that would be news to me!
You need to ask Kobo about this in the first instance; my site reports what it sees, we don’t set the price.
As far as I can see, my site is reporting accurate pricing information for the prices Kobo are displaying in the USA and the UK. Please let me know if you find an example where it isn’t, I’ll check it out ASAP.
Happy to help if I can,
Rachel
