I buy lots of books from various online booksellers. I have noticed that lots of imported books are listed at inflated(higher) prices as compared to the original publishers list price. On these inflated prices Flipkart offers some discount which gives an impression that Flipkart is extending better(lower) prices. My suggestion is to cross check the prices of imported books on some other website(say Amazon.com or BN.com) and convert it into Indian rupees. This will give you more clear picture about the correctness of the prices for imported books .
