So to avoid hassle I guess I should buy MOBI files instead, since they can be DRM stripped and converted to e.g. Epub in Calibre so I can get them on the Reader?

After I get answers from Sony and HarperCollins I'll try to be nice to Diesel Books and ask if they can swap my books for MOBI files. Worth a shot.
You should have contacted Diesel and not HarperCollins and Sony. That's just silly. HarperCollins and Sony did not sell you the wrong format. Diesel did. And it is Diesel's fault a confusing listing. By contacting HarperCollins and Sony, I do feel you are going overboard on this. It is a Dielsel issue. And if you ever see listings for ADe and do not specifically see ePub then it's PDF.

What I suggest is buying the ePub from BooksOnBoard, removing the DRM, fixing the paragraph spaces in the CSS and then having a good read.
