Hachette prices at Amazon
It could just be a fluke, but I've received a number of ereaderiq price drop notices on Hachette titles tonight -- both happen to be from $9.99 to $8.89 on titles long available in MMP (here's one of them). The Amazon info pages also aren't showing "this price was set by the publisher" anymore.

I received a dozen or so emails for drops today as well. Unfortunately, none of them dropped below my threshold price, but it was nice to see them dropping.

Same here but it drop like 10 cents on all the titles I had on my wishlist. I hope it drops more than that! Maybe once Books on Board starts discounting them we will see a better savings I hope.

They seem to finally have dropped agency pricing.
Some of the books on my wishlist dropped about 50cents. Not enough to make me buy them yet. What I also noticed is that Harper Collins titles have come down a bit today. |

Actually, some of the HarperCollins titles have dropped a lot more thann 50 c. I just picked a few up that are usually 6.99 or 7.99 for 3.79 and 0.99!
