I use ebookprice.info for any generic US-ebook searches now. It does not distinguish between Adobe ePub and PDF, but currently only Books on Board stocks ePubs.

EDIT: BoB says this is an ePub but it is also sold as "Adobe Digital Editions" by Powell's and Diesel. I tend to believe BoB on this (since there is a UK ePub), so other book stores may be selling ePubs - they just are not saying so.



I don't think highly of that site, sorry.

For example, if one goes to Fictionwise and looks up Shogun, this is the breakdown:

Regular: $7.99
Club Price: $6.79
Cost after rebate: $4.07


NOTE [By Me]
: The difference between the "Cost After Rebate" and the "Club Price" (if paid with a credit card), is then applied to your account as a Micropay Rebate which simply means that the difference is applied to your account to use. It's money in the "bank," so to speak.

Furthermore, the site you list doesn't even mention ANY PRICE in the "Microsoft Reader" format, which is indeed available from Fictionwise.

The pricing information for this website you mention is just way too skimpy and doesn't really give one the exact information needed in order to make an educated choice.

This is my opinion, of course; however, I'm glad that the site works for you.
