About That Price At Amazon.com.mx...


When I first looked at Amazon Mexico's Kindle Store page for The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan, I was surprised to see the price they had listed (image above).

Although Mexico's currency is in pesos (and centavos), they also use the familiar '$' symbol for their pricing, the same as in the United States.

The price listed for the travel guide is $62.96. That sounds like a hell of a lot of money for an ebook, even for mine.

But, checking with the Universal Currency Converter, I found the rate of exchange between the two currencies to be:

1.00 USD =13.3325 MXN

So, the price Amazon put on the ebook is right in line. It just looks like a lot.
