I haven't actually bought anything at BooksOnBoard (I don't count the Random House freebies), so I haven't actually been eligible for Reward Dollars. Is BooksOnBoard really cheaper than Fictionwise for day to day purchases? I admit that I usually buy the eReader format at Fictionwise for the addition 5% Micropay rebate.
Yes, BoB prices are discounted without having to join anything and then most of their new releases come with reward dollars. I have looked at both BoB & Fictionwise prices before setting an account with BoB. I looked again yesterday at Fictionwise for the 1st time in 7 months because 2 bundles I was trying to buy at BoB were the wrong files; the actual prices of the bundle on BoB is $23.55, no rebate dollar require to get that price; Fitionwise Club - $25.97, after Rebate $22.07, but I tried to buy it and it wanted to charge me who's in neither $30.55. I don't have to join anything to get the $23.55 for the bundle on BoB and they are offering $2.55 reward dollar on this bundle. So that's why I prefer BoB and I see why they say they don't have a gimmick, because the books are discounted for everyone, even casual buyers that just decide to go to their site and buy a book. The reward dollars are just extra, like icing on a cake.
