iBook in two volumes
I am publishing an iBook in two volumes and I want to distribute it as a set at one price, or give the opportunity to the user to buy the volumes separately at a different price. Is this possible?
Thank you

Apple have one book delivery process... you deliver A book - if you have a series planned or you decide your book needs to be in two parts - each becomes a separate book and you need to adjust your charges per book - which you decide.
if you split one book into two books.. each book must have its own cover ( confusing if you use the same design - but your choice) it must also have its own screen shots and everything in the deliver process.
Thank you vinnyvg. What you are saying is that I cannot offer a cheaper price for readers that buy the two books at the same time?
The delivery process allows you to choose one price tier in your chosen currency - which is then used as the basis of all 51 stores currencies when converted - if you opted for all stores. Therefore with a large volume, split into two books - each must be priced as a single book.
If you want to charge more for Book 1 than Book two, in a way you are rewarding the buyer of both both books with a discounted price.
Dear vinnyvg,
Both books are a series but deal with different subjects. There will be some users more interested in book 1 or book 2 and others would like to buy both books.
What I wanted was to offer both books as a set for a discounted price, but that seems not to be possible.
Is there no other workaround?
Thank you again
Not sure that two books dealing with different subjects can be termed a series...but... fact is no matter how want to kick it around... you can sell only one book at one price - not two books at one price. What price you put on each book is your choice, You have no way to track who bought book 1 or book 2.
Your own comments indicate the books by their content, will sell on that content to those who like it.
Fact is, at this time, you don't have other selling options from Apple.
Thank you vinnyvg,
I should have said the two volumes deal with different areas of the same subject.
