1. 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed

All O'Reilly customers are guaranteed absolute satisfaction--anything less and your money back.

2. 40% Upgrade Offer on Books

If you've purchased an older edition of an O'Reilly book, we will give you a 40% discount on the purchase price of the newer edition.

When you register your O'Reilly book, we'll send you an email announcement when we publish a new edition of that book. The email will include a 40% upgrade discount offer so you can purchase the new edition at 40% off directly from oreilly.com.

If you have a book dating back more than one edition, please register your book then contact Customer Service.

This upgrade policy only applies to books shipped to US addresses.

3. Membership discounts on books and events

This begins with our popular "Buy 2, Get 1 Free" offer, and just gets better:

Offer allows for one free book for every two you order!

Buy...    Get...

Buy 2 Books    Get 3rd FREE

Buy 4 Books    Get 5th and 6th FREE

Buy 6 Books    Get 7th, 8th and 9th FREE

etc...
All orders over $29.95 qualify for free shipping within the US.
Offer includes O'Reilly products offered as PDF documents and Ebook bundles.
Unless the offer message indicates otherwise, the promotional offer applies the discount across the books. This will typically result in an even larger discount than most "Buy 2, Get 1 Free" offers which typically apply the free purchase to the cheapest item purchased.
Offer applies to International customers.
Includes books from O'Reilly as well as our partner publishers No Starch, Paraglyph, PC Publishing, Pragmatic, Rocky Nook, SitePoint, TidBITS Publishing, and YoungJin.

Be sure to use discount code OPC10 in our shopping cart to take advantage of this offer. Please note that your discounted price will be shown on the payment page and not reflected immediately in your shopping cart.

Please note that the offer does not include Rough Cuts and may not be combined with other offers.

4. Free lifetime updates to electronic versions of books

When you purchase an electronic version of one of our books we'll notify you in email whenever we make updates to it, and you can download the new versions for free.

5. Multiple ebook formats, DRM Free

Whenever possible, we provide you with the option of purchasing an ebook bundle that includes a PDF, .epub, and Kindle-compatible .mobi files, all for one price. Our ebooks are DRM free, meaning you can print, and cut-and-paste from them.

6. Access to the O'Reilly Community

We provide you with a number of unique ways to communicate directly with us and our content creators, including book and topic forums, Get Satisfaction, book reviews, and events.

We also have an excellent user group program that provides user groups with review copies of O'Reilly products, donations of books and other promo items, UG member discounts and potential speakers.
