Javed,

Thank you!
Please feel free to contact me if you have any suggestion or find any problem.

stustaff,

I have tried to contact them by email and web form.
Hopefully they will say "yes".

Sweet! I was looking for something like this for a long time. Thanks!

jbjb · 11-11-2009, 06:21 AM

Nice work!

How about adding Random House (http://www.rbooks.co.uk/)?

Thanks for contacting COOLERBOOKS!

interest in joining forces with your site.
Then you will be contacted by an associate.

Thanks for your suggestion. rbooks has been added.

Hi,

I have been searching for some books in the addall ebook search engine but could not find them. I searched by author including authors such as Phillip Roth or Raymond Carver. Why is it that I could find no books from them?

Thanks

I can find Philip(one "l") Roth ebook, but not Raymond Carver,
I can only find paper book but not ebook by Raymond Carver at Amazon.

Would it be possible to add in publisher websites that support eBooks as well? Like Harpercollins and Simon & Schuster (for examples).

MetaEbooks,

Could I suggest that, if you do this, you don't have a separate checkbox for every possible publisher. The search page is already quite crowded. Pehaps a single checkbox to cover "Other publishers"?

Just a thought.

MetaEbooks · 11-27-2009, 04:21 AM

JSWolf,

I didn't add Simon & Schuster and some other publishers was because they are selling ebooks in full list price. I wonder if anybody is going to buy from them.

Hi Mike

Thanks for your suggestion, I will consider that when more and more sites are added.

JSWolf · 03-06-2010, 08:37 AM

Kobobooks is missing from the search engine. Can Kobo please be added in? Thanks.

JSWolf · 10-12-2010, 02:41 AM

Addall no longer works with Amazon and it also should work with Kobo/Borders as well as B&N.

Are you about that, Jon?

I've just done a number of searches, and they all show results from Amazon.

Of course, you have to set the filters to include Kindle books.

FlorenceArt · 10-12-2010, 10:23 AM

I've been using this search engine for a few months and find it very useful. I love the easy customization features. I wondered if you've considered adding country availability to your search criteria, and/or to the result list? That would be most useful.

I stand corrected. But, Addall is not reliable. I just did a search for American Assassin and the only store that came up was Amazon and I know Sony has it too.

The search I did before this one did have Sony but not Amazon and I know Amazon has the book I was looking for. So really, something isn't quite right with addall. It needs some serious fixing.

phenomshel · 10-12-2010, 02:51 PM

I agree, Jon (don't faint...) *grin*.
AddAll has gotten pretty flaky lately about what results it comes up with. Some of it is due to the sites not having books listed correctly (as in Sue Ann Jaffarian listed at Books on Board, as Jaffarian Sue - no comma to indicate the name is reversed). But I too get either no results for books I know are available or incomplete results.
