ABEBOOKS Has Been Much More Than Just "Alright".
I have ordered some 20 or 25 books or cassette programs over about 6 years.
Not only have I ALWAYS gotten the correct book or cassette program,
But it has Always been in the "good" condition that was posted.
(In the "preowned books", usually there's been only 1 or 2 lines of writing in the whole book. I always order "in GOOD" or "in very good" condition--not "fair".)
To this date, there has always been speed of arrival, as the prompts will tell you how soon to expect it. When I order 3 books at a time, obviously, they might arrive at different days, due to different vendors.
So, until I have any different outcomes, I feel this site has been a blessing. (And I am NOT affliated w/any ABEBOOKS personnel in any way.)
Addendum: 2015, I got a book incorrectly gauged as "Large Print", but (Abebooks and) the vendor wonderfully responded when I contacted them about the error.
