Hi Arachnids As a self-publishing author I give a discount to suppliers. However, the supplier has to pay carriage, which on heavy books, is substantial. Also when sending outside the EU there are usually import duties for them to pay and local sales tax. This will probably increase the price they pay per book to over the original retail price. On top of that the supplier has to make a profit. This has to be take into account when buying from suppliers. Even so, we have all seen books being sold on ebay at ridiculous prices.
