thanks all. yes. we now know this is for Apple prods. wondering if there is an Industry Standard formula for arriving at a separate Agency price?
thanks all for your feedback!

It sounds like Apple to me too. And maybe someone decided to make the eBook price 80% of the print price, which is pretty common.

We had to add a separate “Agency” price for Apple eBooks, and the price must end in $.99. Apple also requires separate pricing supplied for every territory, while most channels only need USD.
