You buy a book. The price drops. Is this normal?

This is 100% normal. No need to freak out.

The thing to keep in mind is that prices are going up and down all the time. And they go up as much as they go down (otherwise all books would be a penny). Its like the stock market in that way.

So it's a mistake to look at any book price at this moment as anything other than a brief snapshot in time.

1. Hold your ground and wait for the price to rise again.
2. Drop your price to make it more competitive (for a quicker sale).

The one thing not to do is freak out. There are hundreds of millions of price fluctuations on Amazon daily, and its totally normal.
