I had one, "Pirate Latitudes" in my cart that I had meant to buy. Purchased it after the store converted to ePub. Sony was more than glad to take the money, and put it in my purchased list. Can't download the book, though - it's "unavailable". It also no longer shows up in the store if you search for it.

The tech support chat was interesting...

Kenneth Schunk> Nope. It shows up under my purchased list, and my purchased count went from 123 to 124. The button that would let me download it says "unavailable" instead of "download".
Kenneth Schunk> That particular book also no longer shows up in the store if searched for - perhaps not converted to ePub yet?
Smith_> I'm really sorry; as the eBook store is under upgradation so some of the eBooks might not be listed.
Smith_> Please try downloading it in the evening
...

Other than learning a new word - upgradation - the short answer is that not everything is converted yet, and to try again later.
