Disappointed by Dell

jmc_bksI'm kind of disappointed by Bantam/Dell/Randomhouse. I went to their website today to buy an ebook copy of Tara Janzen's Crazy Love, which was supposed to be released today. I could order a paperback copy, and they had a link up for the ebook, but there was no way to buy an electronic copy -- no cart or "buy now" button -- on the page. I've got enough to carry and don't need to add anything else, which is why I was looking for the ebook.
I'm probably going to wait until I can pick up a copy at the library instead now. [I put my name on the hold/reserve list and a copy is waiting for me.] I won't have time to get to a bricks and mortar store until Saturday, and even if I order a paperback online, it won't arrive until then. The library is closer and cheaper. Bummer for you, Dell/Bantam/Randomhouse -- $6.99 that could have been yours will now go to another publisher or be spent on something else.
