it is the equivalent of those books costing 10000$ for you

That's admittedly expensive, DuckDuckGo converted it to around 450 USD, so that seemed more reasonable.

- what i am trying to say is if you take purchasing power parity into account and look at the costs, the books cost a bomb.

- i could buy a laptop at the price of the books being sold here. it is just tooo much.

- the author needs to take PPP into account and price accordingly similar to how steam does it

- i could get a really good meal for 500 rs at a good restaurant here

- the cost of the book is close to 80 such meals

- if we price it in your currency assuming 100$ for a really decent meal, the author is charging 8000$ for the books
