I think it's more the fact that every reporter and paper in the country decided it was a slow news day and they had to compare the US/Canadian prices on almost everything. The discounts on comics are up to 20% higher than they are on books, and if our distributors were giving us 60% off cover price, we would still make less money, but it wouldn't be the total disaster it would otherwise be.
Of course our distributors might well be unable to eat the loss of their margins in this scenario.
