True here in India,for some books, although they may be published
sometimes a year or more later.

Today I just purchased "The Ruby Programming language" by D.Flanagan
and Matz for Indian Rs.400( $10 ) . This book is priced more than $26
at Amazon.com.

This book can legally be  sold only  in the Indian Subcontinent and
some countries in African Continent.
