They could be lying or mistaken, of course, but that's what I base my statement on.

It is true with Amazon. I bought a book last year (the single-volume omnibus edition of Brandon Sanderson's "Mistborn Trilogy") which was mistakenly offered for sale for a while at Amazon UK. It's no longer available for sale, but it's still in my Archive and can be downloaded.
But that's NOT true with Adobe Content Server, which all the mainstream ePub bookstores use.
Personally, I've learnt from experience that if I buy a book today, I shouldn't assume that it'll be available for download tomorrow. Buy it today. Download it today. That way it's under your control, not the bookstore's.
