To avoid Amazon and save $. Jeff Bozos can go to space on his own dime.

Very easy. You can find stuff that nobody else has. Cheaper than Kindle!
Because I needed a book that no one else had. Plus your search engine finds what I'm looking for, not 100s of unrelated items like Amazon's annoying search engine. I just hope you don't make your employees pee in bottles like they do! Plus recycling is good for the Earth and the budget.

Better selection for individual items than Amazon. Shipping has always been too expensive, but at least it is faster lately.
Trying to avoid Amazon. Go union!
Cheaper than Amazon anyway. I have used alibris for years.
