Hi all
I run the ebookprice.info website, and I'd really appreciate your feedback on how I can make it work even better.
I started the site a year ago when I bought an ebook reader (Sony PRS-505) and was pretty horrified how long it was taking me to pin down the books I wanted to buy.
Please, try it out - give me your feedback. You can use the "feedback" link on the site, use my twitter account or mail me directly at rachel@ebookprice.info.
Also, if I was going to add links from the site into LibraryThing, what would you like to see?
Cheers
Rachel

I would like to see you add more data source sites. As it is, whenever I type in book info, your site has no data for me at all but if I Google (or Froogle) the title and 'ebook', I get better results. Granted, I don't read many 'top 40' books and I'm often looking for odd genre or out of print books, but your database could be stronger.
I would like to see an upfront listing somewhere on your site telling potential buyers which ebook suppliers your service searches. If, for example, you're listing B&N but not Fictionwise or allromance.com, I want to know that, so that I can make an accurate comparison by searching those other sites on my own... but that kind of defeats the purpose of having your site do the searching and comparing for me. Thus, the more data you can draw upon, the better.

Thanks for the feedback.
Can you give me an example of the kind of books you're looking for but not finding? It's always easier to look into possible errors with a specific example.
There's a list of the suppliers on the home page: "Amazon UK, Amazon USA, Borders, Barnes and Noble, BooksOnBoard, CyberRead, Diesel eBooks, eBooks.com, ereadable.com, Fictionwise, Powells, Random House, Sony, Waterstones".
And, as of yesterday, Kobo Books (previously known as Shortcovers).
I'll be adding in Project Gutenberg, and similar sources in the near future, so that might address the "out of print" books question.
Any more suggestions? And which other sites would you like included?
