"Works best on mobile"
Very happy to find a book I could not get in my library or on Google Play
The download worked immediately on mobile, but the online reading mode did not work (Sorry Amigo Reader was unable to load this book; error: AMG599XX) Rather than pursuing this I downloaded and registered with Adobe Editions, and then things were fine.

"First you pay, then you work to get what you paid for..."
Ridiculous! Nothing is clear on their website. I have already spent 30 minutes of my life trying to figure out how to open the ebooks I bought from them. So, in the end their books are not so cheap - on top of spending YOUR money, you are OBLIGED to spend YOUR TIME AND ENERGY to make their product finally work. Don't recommend to people who value their time and comfort.
P.S. Please, at least create some kind of clear instructions on one page (without 25 hyperlinks you have to follow to collect all the bits of needed info) with few screenshots...

"Ridiculous experience"
Ridiculous experience. Purchased an ebook which was supposed to be supported in epub format but after purchasing, it indicated I had to download their own app and I wouldn't be able to use iBooks to read it (I read all my epubs in iBooks). So then I tried opening in Adobe Digital and re-authorized + re-installed Adobe but NO, the book still cannot be opened or downloaded. Basically, the error message I received was that the file didn't even exist. So I've been wasting a half hour trying to read a damn book. Have requested a refund.

"Ebooks.com mislead me to buy DRM…"
Ebooks.com mislead me to buy DRM protected books.
DRM ebooks is a damaged good. It prevents you from doing what would be possible without it. And they refuse to refund me.
Do not buy from them. You will be very disappointed when you need customer service.

"Great service for textbooks!"
I have no idea why people are giving this site bad reviews! I discovered this site, found the book I needed at a VERY low price and downloaded it within minutes! Saved the book to my computer with no problem whatsover! Will be back again!

"Confusion with ebooks and ebooks-books sites"
Not really a review but a possible explanation for several bad experiences. I was searching for a manual and up came one site,
bitchute.com/ with links which took me to ebooks-books.com which I was very suspicious of because of their requirements etc. I then noticed it is not the ebooks.com but has extra "-books" in the address! and this may be the site the bad complaints have been for. It may be a scam site deliberately out to confuse and take your money??

"Troublesome to get onto Nook Glowlight…"
Troublesome to get onto Nook Glowlight Plus. You have to have Adobe Digital Editions on your computer and also have your computer "authorized", and there is more. I pored the internet for suggestions.. I spent hours trying to figure it out, finally got them onto the Nook I thought, then the next time I opened Nook, no books. I complained to customer service and they had suggestions that didn't work.
Then I went onto B&N and bought 2 nook books. In 5 min they were on my Nook. Only thing was they did not have books by the author I wanted, but I got two others.

"Not Great"
Will not let me download even after downloading prerequisite app.
Would like a refund.

"Terrible"
While i wouldn't go as far as to label it a scam, eBooks.com is an awful, primitive site that i would recommend you avoid. The site has "Established in 2000" presented proudly under the logo, and i'd almost be willing to wager the site hasn't been updated since that year.
After making a purchase, the reader is given two options to read the book - a download link, and an in-browser pop-up window. From what i can tell, the download link is completely broken. They make it very clear that they want you to download their reader app before you download the book, and while the book is labeled ".ePub" on the site, the file you actually get is just garbled junk. Completely unusable.
The in-browser pop-up window works, but only that. The software legit looks like it's from around 1995, and the loading of pages can be very slow (sometimes they don't load at all). The scrolling bar is very imprecise, and the extra features (such as the "search this book" function) also only work when they want to. You can make it work if you really need it, but there are many better options out there aside from this relic of a site.
