Or if you mean looking at Kobo's catalog ... if the download options don't specifically say EPUB2, it's probably EPUB3.
Thank you kindly. I was looking for a way to check any epub bought anywhere.

I'm too stupid to figure out Calibre editor so I went the IDPF route. Indeed, the little self-pubbed book I bought (and was refunded) at Kobo was epub3. Evidently, Smashwords allows authors to upload epub3s. I repurchased it at B&N and also received an epub3 and sideloaded it onto my Sony 650. It seems to work ok other than the cover missing.
