RIP OFF
This is by far the WORST company I have had to deal with. I purchased the book tonight and have been trying to figure out how to access the file for hours. Once I figured out I needed adobe digital editions to read them- NOT stated on the website, I cannot enlarge the pages to even read them!!!! And to add insult to injury, there is no customer service number to call to resolve the problem. I purchased an expensive textbook I need to read for class tonight. I will spread the word to other students this is a waste of precious time and money. I have NEVER had problems downloading books from other online sources, like these. RIP-OFF!!!!! STAY AWAY!!!!

Adobe Digital Editions -- that's DRM.
Don't let DRM get off scott free. It deserves at least some of the blame. It's defective by design. |

palm ereader unlock codes
I need to know how to reset the unlock code for a book i purchased a year ago it is a palm ereader book. i recently got a new computer and am trying to redownload all of my books however i no longer have the credit card i used to originally purchase my book. I have looked all over my account page and can find nowhere to reset this code. I have purchased a new book with my new card and then tried to redownload my previously purchases and that does not work. Can someone please help me with this.

Another option is to contact the bank that issued you that card to find out if they can give you the card details. This is actually a lot more common issue then many people know. My bank switched from a Mastercard bank card to a Visa bank card not too long ago and if I had eBooks in eReader or ePub from B&N, I could be in trouble trying to read them. No DRM is perfect and there are gotchas to all of them. |

Well, at the risk of sounding different, my experience with Diesel has been very good.
I have bought books from them and when I did have a problem (once), they responded quickly and took care of the problem. From a pricing standpoint you are credited back a portion of the purchase price (BooksOnBoard does this as well), so on that basis alone their price often ends up less than Amazon, B&N etc., especially when it comes to "Agency Pricing". My experience |

This site seems to get more attention than the diesel website itself, so I would like to kindly ask for someone who works for that website to make the two year old red faction guerrilla strategy guide available since I purchased it just now and would like to make sure that the site didn't just make me pay for a picture of the damn thing.
