As Gas Prices Rise, Will Books Follow?

Until the recent and uncontrolled growth in energy prices, inflation has been low and book prices have been relatively stable, begging the question: will the trend continue?

Like a number of other consumer goods, books are typically priced at several convenient price points near the dollar mark, such as $9.99, $14.99, etc. While there has been some pricing at the mid-dollar point, an increase in prices will likely result in a shift to the next dollar—$10.99 rather than $9.99—which, especially in cheaper categories like mass market, will certainly be noticeable.
