ITS A SCAM
SCAMMERS! Paid to download ebook. Never received. Fake business address in Texas but website is registered to Vietnam. Google phone number, no answer. Support emails are read but not responded to.
Was not a scam but several pages of my ebook were blank. All that was in them were the page numbers. I needed information off of these pages so I emailed and called support and no one got back with me.
I love eBooks.com. It’s easy to use and has all the books I love.
Don’t use them. Bad service never received the book ordered
My ebook did not download and when I tried to reach the company. No reply, please DO NOT purchase from this website.
Open Access does not work! They take your money, but do not respond to you. Just like a scam!
This was my fourth purchase from eBooks.com and I can confirm that the service is top notch. It has all the books I love and it’s very easy to navigate.
This is a scam! Don’t trust this site! I bought a textbook book from them, didn’t receive it (it was a digital file), spoke to the seller and “returned” it and cancelled my PayPal order. Thought it was just a fluke so I ordered the textbook again from this site but from a different seller. I only received a digital file and it was only the first 28 pages (the index only). I reached out 4 different times to fix the problem or receive a refund and still haven’t heard back from them (a week ago!). This is a scam. PLEASE don’t be fooled by the low prices. You’ll never received your product or your money back.
i just bought a book from them last week and i can report that this business totally sucks. their business is based on selling ebooks but they aren’t compatible with most e-ink kindles, since that is the most popular and best e-reader then why waste your time?
e-readers should only have electronic ink so it doesn’t tire your eyes like backlit devices do. unfortunately you must search and search for this info it’s hidden away….
so now i’m reading this book on my mac, using the horrid adobe digital editions software that you MUST use with all the books they sell, if you come across this site, then walk on by, it’s crap.
In my point of view i agree that e-Books.com is a fairly safe and trustworthy site to buy digital books from but it is also true that there are also a decent number of negative reviews about e-books.

Just purchase a digital book now. PDF came right away. So far so good. Saved a lot of money using ebookus.com
I purchased the pdf document, expecting to be able to it as a pdf, with other readers. Then I was required to downloaded the reader. Beyond reading the pdf the other very basic functions do not work, such as highlighting and search. The customer service team advised my issue was resolved after providing a link to a standardised document. The issue was not resolved, and remains unresolved. I’m very disappointed. My current advice is to purchase elsewhere. If my advice changes I will tell you so.
It is not exactly a scam. You do get the book if you downloaded it to and extremely bad reader called Adobe Digital Editions. It is not an “ebook”; so forget reading it on Kindle etc. The reader is so badly formatted you will not likely bother even if you get the text.
One of the worst services I have ever used. I asked for a refund, they followed up to ask what was wrong, provided a link to reply to. The link does not work, instead it refreshes the site to a “login” website. When I try to register “An unknown error occurred. Please try again or contact support”.
So I mailed them again two times using their website, nobody responded this time around. Just sunk $120. Request #1075466. If I do not get my money back, I will definitely write to a consumer protection agency in Australia.
Horrible website. Deceptive practices. Makes you pay first, then forces you to give personal info to see your book. Avoid at all costs.
