Technically, the file has an azw extension.
I changed it to mobi
I discovered 9781101056530 is the ISBN
So, by default the other number should be the PID.
I used pid_checksum.py and it showed the last two characters changed to 26
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT wait
When I try to strip it it says wrong PID on both CG & 26
Then I change the first two 00's to oo (zeros to letter O) I get a different PID
under pid_checksum, the last two characters change from CG to D3
Even using THAT PID doesn't work.
I am not asking for someone to help Pirate a book, Harry, I bought the book from -

I had a similar problem a few years ago when I bought a book from Diesel eBooks, they had to recode my PID into the file; it took them almost two weeks to do that; I am just trying to shorten that potential waiting period.
