Kobo Store and deleted books?

I've been testing the Kobo Store on my Sony T2. It seems to work fine.

However (you knew that was coming), when I delete a Preview or a Free Book (I was testing a couple confirmed DRM books that another poster told me about) from the device and from my online library, they stay in my "Purchased Content" bookshelf on the T2. And I can still download them to the T2 -- even though they no longer show up in my online library? So, I thought, a glitch in the Store's interaction with the T2. But I find, that if I try to download the preview or book again online (I wanted to see if one was a kePub or not) Kobo's Online Store sends me to my library -- where the book or preview no longer exists. I do not have the option to re-download the book or preview. So, it looks like the problem is a syncing within Kobo's Store?

Has anyone ever had a similar problem? -- and is there a fix? -- and is this the right forum to ask these questions? Thanks.

Have you checked the Trash on the Kobo Web site --> http://www.kobobooks.com/library/trash/index.html

If you select a book there you can delete it permanently from your account.

I've done that. It still 1) Shows up in my "Purchased Content" bookshelf on the T2 (even after syncing) and 2) It still won't let me re-download the book online -- saying I already the book in my library and 3) when I re-download the book on the T2, it doesn't show up in my Online Library.

I'm guessing this works fine on Kobo devices. So, I'm guessing, it's a syncing glitch they have with the T2 (and Sony devices).

Thanks for the response. Mostly what I want to do is get rid of my test books in my Purchased Content shelf on the T2. When I download previews to the T2, it's going to be a mess if I can never delete them.
