Amazon Kindle Comixology UK Comics Prices Continue To Fall

Amazon Kindle Comixology UK digital comic book prices continue to fall alongside the value of the dollar

That's the thing about buying Comixology digital comic book titles released weekly on Amazon Kindle when you live in the UK. You never exactly know what they are going to cost. And this is not just about being subject to the whims of the currency market, but even within that week's listings, prices of comics can vary unpredictably. Take this list of new releases for one week in February, separated into US cover price, next to the UK £ sterling sale price.

It's a long time since the days of Brexit. As yet, however, the UK price in comic book stores through Diamond UK has yet to be affected. They usually take a conservative patient approach to changing prices based on currency jumps and falls, but with the dollar continuing to drop in value against the pound, from the beginning of the year to date, might it be time? And as to why Energon Universe titles are repeatedly cheaper in the UK than in the US, that I have no answer for.
