TripleXBooks (TXB) Information & Updates Page...

10-01-2023 E-Books Update completed!! 251 New acquisitions added. If you'd like to be notified when updates occur, please ensure you've enabled the 'Newseltter' feature of your account. HAPPY BROWSING!

09-15-2023 Slight site update. Now, when browsing inventory in the Gallery/List view... clicking on an Author Name will bring up all items I have by that same author. Basically just s shortcut to manually typing author name in the search bar. Thought some might find this useful. Hopefully more upgrades on the way soon-ish. :)

08-01-2023 Hope you enjoyed the sale!! Just completed an e-Books update. 544 New Acquisitions added!!

07-17-2023 As some of you have already noticed, I do sell on AdultStuffOnly.com. Recently offered up my entire hardcopy paperback inventory. You can see the ad by clicking "HERE". This includes all current TripleXBooks site inventory AND also inventory that has never been posted. If/when a buyer steps forward, the current hardcopy inventory on this site will then be removed!! Until then, I'll keep the current listings up and you can indeed purchase. So, if you've had your eye on a title, now would be a good time to act!! If you're perhaps interested in purchasing my entire paperback collection, then feel free to send inquiries.

03-09-2023 I'm proud to introduce E-CREDITS!!!! I've had the idea for years... FINALLY found the time/funds to implement! These e-Credits are CHEAPER then the normal tiered pricing! Even if you do not plan on purchasing E-Credits, this add-on does still provide additional features. The explanation for all this is somewhat involved, hence I've setup an individual faq page. Please go here to view the details... "E-CREDITS FAQ PAGE".

05-28-2022 (Updated 7/7/23) The hardcopy paperbacks offline browsing zip file was last updated on 05/28/22. At that time it completely matched the online available inventory However, some have since been sold off. Also, I'm now attempting to liquidate my entire hardcopy inventory, so this offline browsing file will most likely not be updated any further.

08-10-2020 (Updated 05-15-2023): Welcome to the NEW & UPDATED TripleXBooks!!!

New Site has been LIVE for nearly 3 years!! Hmmm, not really 'new' any more. However, believe it or not, I still have some sporadic customers that are not aware... and are confused when revisiting the site. Hence I'll be leaving this informational posting up a while longer. Below are bullet-points of the major 'changes' and such:

***Site is on a DEDICATED Server. Should be faster & more responsive.

***Site is MOBILE FRIENDLY! Improved navigation/display for MOST devices.

***Categories have been changed/modified slightly. I've tried to include 'Pet', 'Family', 'Gay', B/D S/M, etc. titles into appropriate subfolders. Not perfect, but should better assist in searches.

***Addendums made to some e-Books annotating GAY INTEREST, LESBIAN, BI-SEXUAL, CROSS-DRESSING, etc. Again, not perfect... I'm sure many titles that fall into these addendum categories have not been modified. This is a work-in-progress and may never be fully completed.

***A complete & CLEAN UPLOAD of all e-Books has taken place.

***Customer database/orders did NOT transfer... EVERYONE needs to create a new account. The "You've Previously Purchased" feature still exists, but will obviously not have any old records. I do have a solution, but will require individual customers to rectify. Here's the process...

     1. Create an account & verify your email.
     2. Using old order emails as a guide, re-add e-Books to your cart.
     3. Complete the re-add & then checkout using the Check/MO option.
     4. Put in the 'notes' section that these were Previously Ordered e-Books.
     5. Finalize the order.
     6. I'll receive order, verify previously ordered, & mark as paid.
     7. E-Books available for download & "Previously Purchased" now up-to-date.

Overall, I do  believe the changes are beneficial for everyone. Please read further updates/information below. Questions/comments... please feel free to utilize the "Contact Us" feature.

Common Questions & Answers:

Q: I'm not familiar with your e-Books. Can you explain further?

A: E-Books consist of AT LEAST two files... txt & jpg. These are not 'protected'. Many programs will open/read. The .jpg file is an image file of the paperback cover. The .txt is the actual story.

Some e-Books have additional files... primarily for illustrations (typically contained within a zip file). The .txt file has been annotated in such a manner so you'll know where each image appears in the work. Some e-Books may have additional files and are noted in the item specifics.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Can you explain the pricing system for your e-Books?

A: The more you buy, the less you pay!! All discounts are automated. Here's the breakdown:

# Of E-Books                    Price Per E-Book
 01-09............................... $2.00 Each (No Discount)
 10-24............................... $1.70 Each
 25-49............................... $1.65 Each
 50-74............................... $1.60 Each
 75-99............................... $1.55 Each
 100-249..........................  $1.50 Each
 250-499..........................  $1.25 Each
 500++++........................ $1.15 Each

Discounts disabled during sale times.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Why can't I order just one e-Book?

A: Unfortunately, allowing single e-Book purchases is not economically feasible. There is a $5 minimum order is in place. However, just 3 e-Books will put you over the threshold!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I'm having problems finding certain titles... please help!

A: TXB does have a fairly robust SEARCH bar... upper right-ish. You can put in a title, series, author name, or other key title info. You can even put your search criteria inside quotes... results will display ONLY & EXACTLY items that match this criteria. Additionally, you can do multiple searches at once using the AND & OR features. Say you want to see all books listed by Kathy Andrews & Tom Allison... simply put in the search bar: "Kathy Andrews" OR "Tom Allison", results will show both. The AND feature means that any returns would have to have BOTH search items. Play around with it, I'm sure you'll enjoy how it works. :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is this "Favorites" (Heart Symbol) Cart?

A: Introducing "FAVE CART"! This is different from the NORMAL cart. You can now add to Normal Cart OR to the Fave Cart... even right from the listing pages!! Great for saving items you're thinking about purchasing later... and various other reasons. You can move items back and forth between carts, move only one item, selected items, or everything at once! Also, to avoid issues & confusion, the system will NOT allow the exact same item to be in both carts at once. Play around with it, see how you like it. Should be fairly self-explanatory. Feel free to let me know your thoughts.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is the shipping price for hard-copy listed items... or the ones in your Excel file?

A: For USA buyers, the price you see listed (or negotiated) is the TOTAL price you pay. Nothing extra for shipping. For NON-USA residents I do ask that you email me first before making hardcopy purchases. Unfortunately it does cost a bit more to ship outside the US borders and I simply cannot 'eat' this cost.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What types of payment are accepted?

A: TXB currently accepts the following payments:

---Credit Card (DISCREET CHECKOUT!!!) - Visa/MC/Disc: 'Discreet' means that your CC provider will NOT get an itemized list of purchases... ONLY that you've ordered E-Books!
"GA Online Books" is the charge you'll see on your statement.

NOTE: If Gift Card, & no CCV numbers present... just make up 3-digits for that field. It should process.

---Cash/Checks/MO's. (10% Discount!!!) Payment address supplied upon checkout.

---BitCoin. I do have a BitCoin wallet. If desiring BitCoin payment, then please email me.

---Zelle. Please email if wishing to utilize this payment option.

---Lastly, for orders over $50, I've one other POPULAR online payment system available. However, I'm not able to mention in this FAQ. If interested, please feel contact via email.

NOTE: E-Check Payment was removed. Rates increased and was no longer viable due to lack of use.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Is the checkout process secure?

A: Yes!  TripleXBooks mose certainly has secure checkout... along with other security measures. Also, TXB does not retain payment data. If hacked, there is simply nothing to retrieve!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Do I have to create an account to download e-Books?

A: In a nutshell... YES, an account is needed. Won't bore you with the details, but it all works much better this way. Have no worries, as stated in my 'Privacy Policy', TXB will NEVER sell, share, or give away any of your personal information!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I download my purchased e-Books?

A: Please follow these steps:

1. After payment submitted, ensure you are logged into your account.
2. Use the pull-down menu of the 'Your Name' option in the upper right-ish.
3. Click the "My Orders" option.
4. Click the "View" option for the appropriate order.  Please allow time to load all your items.
5. You should now be able to download from there... either individually or all at once... bottom link.

Note: If sending check/MO, then follow these steps after I've emailed you that I've received payment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I'm having a problem with retrieving my downloads.  What now?

A: If you've not been able to download via the afore-mentioned steps.  DON'T WORRY!!  Use the 'Contact Us' link located at the bottom right of every page and send me a message.  Buyers ALWAYS get their products!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I can't read the e-Books... no paragraphs, all run together, etc... what now?

A: Sometimes, when opening in notepad, the 'format' can be lost. Typically opening up in wordpad works... all is fine. Just copy all, and then paste back into original notepad file, should work great. Also, for notepad, ensure that 'Word Wrap' is enabled. :)

ALSO: You may be interested in my Triple-X-Reader!! Read about & D/L---> "HERE"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Is there a way to prevent myself from ordering e-Books I've already purchased from you?

A: No worries!! The system will NOT let you order e-Books you've previously purchased! If an item has been previously purchased, you will see an "ALREADY PURCHASED" image overlay on the listing... and you will NOT be able to add to your Checkout Cart.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is this Email Verification System?

A: For a variety of reasons, there is an Email Verification System in place. You must complete this verification before your account can be fully activated. Here's the process:

1. Fill out the fields of the new account area... name, address, etc.
2. After submitting, you'll see the Your Account Has Been Created page; however, you'll also see a message stating that a message has been sent to the email account you provided.
3. Please now check your email. This email should be received within a minute or two. If you do not receive, please check your Spam/Trash folders. There will be a link provided within to click/verify.
4. Click that link, you're then taken to the completed verification page.
5. At this point you're done. You can now log-in fully to the site, place orders, etc.

If you never receive the email, cannot locate in your Spam/Trash folders, please do not hesitate to utilize the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of this page.

NOTE: Unverified accounts are deleted once or twice a month.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I've sent you an inquiry (or used the password recovery) and have not heard back.  Is there a problem?

A: I always respond to emails.  Unfortunately I've found that many times my responses get kicked back as undeliverable for one reason or other.  If that's the case, then I try to respond via my personal email account.  If still being kicked back, then I use my site messaging system to notify customers of the issue.

Other times messages do seem to go through, no notice that they could not be sent.  So, please check to see the email did not go into your trash or spam folders, and that you've not 'blocked' unknown emails... especially if you've used the password recovery option.  Again, I ALWAYS respond to inquires/problems.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is that "Newsletter" deal when signing up?

A: It is mainly a means by which I keep customers updated when new e-Books are added to the site inventory. Also, if something REALLY important needs to be relayed, I may occasionally use the Newsletter for advising customers.

If you did not enable this when you signed up, but wish to do so now, you can access from your "My Account" page.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Do you buy real books?

A: Sometimes. I typically trade e-Books for real books... good trade ratio. Occasionally I do purchase collections. Feel free to shoot me a message, maybe we can work out a deal beneficial to both of us. :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


NOTE:  It is understood that the vast majority of the e-Books listed here (and elsewhere) are from since defunct publishing houses... and most likely are now orphaned.  With this many e-Books, it's obviously impossible to be 100% sure of them all.  If something here is in question, then please send a note.
