Thank you!

NightBird · 10-29-2010, 03:55 PM

Woohoo! Thanks so much - I have a bunch of stuff on my wishlist and was wondering if we would be seeing any more coupons from them. I noticed under formats they are only showing multiformat and Ereader, they have taken anyway the 25% off NY Times bestsellers ad, link to Twitter, Recently Reduced, Great Bargains, and Free books.

ardeegee · 10-29-2010, 04:31 PM

Thanks. I"ve had a book my cart for weeks that I wasn't willing to pay cover price for (around $9.00, which is reeeally pushing my maximum ebook novel price) hoping for a coupon.

Caesonia · 10-29-2010, 05:25 PM

Thank you!

Lemurion · 10-29-2010, 05:28 PM

I got a couple of Analogs I didn't have and the last book in a series. How the mighty have fallen - it was the first thing I'd bought from FW in over a year.

Amazon's getting most of my money these days.

ngrant · 10-29-2010, 09:12 PM

Thank you! Picked up 5 more Aaron Elkins titles in the Gideon Oliver series that I've had in my cart for a couple weeks now, hoping for such a coupon. I am not receiving *any* e-mails from Fictionwise these days, don't know why that is.

SensualPoet · 10-29-2010, 10:20 PM

Unfortunately the way Fictionwise has implemented geographic restrictions means almost nothing is left for Canadians to buy. It's a piuty since there are a lot of Random House titles there which ARE for sale through Kobobooks and Amazon.

khalleron · 10-29-2010, 10:32 PM

Unfortunately, all the books I had on my wish list are no longer available on FW.

doreenjoy · 10-30-2010, 02:03 AM

I ended up only getting 3. Most of the mainstream titles are over on B&N now.

jessicalynn · 10-30-2010, 02:17 AM

wow...I've never really checked out fictionwise but their prices seem REALLY high. I think I would need a coupon to consider shopping there!

Blossom · 10-30-2010, 04:20 AM

I got excited when I saw this but it seems almost all the books I was interested in are now only in Ereader format. I have bought my Lit books in the past from there. I don't even know what ereader format is or what is needed to read it.

thinkpad · 10-30-2010, 04:23 AM

The book: "Don't sleep there are snakes" has been on my TBR list for a long time and what do you know with the coupon it's cheaper from Fictionwise than on Amazon:
Amazon: $12
Fictionwise: $16 (-50% $8)

The only hassle is that it's geo-restricted and only comes in a "secure eReader"-format from Fictionwise, which by the way is the worst format ever that I wouldn't touch with a 10-Foot Pole.

Fictionwise was once the e-book store where I bought most of my books. Now it's been ages since I actually bought anything from them and given there infatuation with the "secure eReader"-format I don't see myself buying anything soon.

By the way I'm getting real fed up with this whole geo-restriction thing. Publishers can go s***w themselves.

doreenjoy · 10-30-2010, 05:22 AM

The answer to Secure eReader format is ereader2html...

FW has gone downhill since their sale to B&N. B&N.com now has all of the mainstream titles exclusively.

Blue Tyson · 10-30-2010, 05:22 AM

This does include Ted Chiang's 'Stories Of Your Life and Others' new edition. That's a great deal.
