Like eNotes.com (see You Cannot Be Serious, # 2), StudyMode.com (motto: 'Inspiring Better Grades') offers essays to students, although the site explicitly decries plagiarism:
Let’s be clear: submitting another person's work as your own is plagiarism, and we’re against it. While you may legitimately cite these works and use them as reference material and thought-starters to your heart’s content, please do not turn in articles from this website as your own.
It's a bit of a conflict of interest, then, that the site carries sponsored advertising for tailored essays and reports:
StudyMode also has a premium service, with prices ranging from 29.95USD per month to 89.95USD for a six-month subscription,* which allows access to full-length essays.
In case you thought I'd forgotten the mangling, here's a small selection of examples, focussed on, but not confined to, a mangle we've encountered before and will certainly meet again:
