Something not quite right I've purchased books from a lot of sites, and many times from APress, but there was a book that I had in my cart, and every time I tried to buy it it said I couldn't, no explanation, it was in my cart, but then bounced out at the point where I wanted to complete the purchase. I managed to buy another book, so it wasn't the site having issues (broadly).

Excellent service Excellent service. Books are easy to select. Ordering process if flawless. Actually ordering a book means some waiting time because of environment conscious print-on-demand system. But this is perfectly OK. If you are in a hurry: aim for the e-books.

awesome books, service, occasional great discounts awesome books, no problems at purchases or viewing / searching items...and occasionall discounts help me to buy books even tough exchange rates for where i live makes it difficult. I love Apress

Wide selection of technical titles I've been an Apress customer for almost ten years and have noticed how it has steadily gotten better with time. Apress Access, in particular, provides unprecedented access to digital e-books related to very specific programming-related topics. The company constantly pushes out relevant and updated material that keeps up with the times. One of the nicest features is that Apress gives user the option to download books in EPUB and PDF formats. Both support the majority of e-reading devices. Sadly, the company stopped supporting MOBI formats for Amazon devices a few years ago. That means customers have to perform an additional conversion step if they want to use devices that only read MOBI files.

Convenient Easy to use, and it was good to be able to download the various ebook formats in one place. I wish though there wasn't a time limit (due to various device issues, accidents, etc) on retrieving the books if you have paid for them, but I have no good or neat recommendation for handling this situation.
