main non, mes amis:

eBook €459.03
Hardcover book €599.49

So there is no paper involved for €460, and heaven forbid if you want it in
paper.

By the way, the extremely odd pricing suggests either that this is
converted from another currency or that the pricing is calculated by some
machine with zero human input; a price with 3 cents is not proposed by a
human.
