There are a massive number of fake books on Amazon, though. There are AI-generated books, designed to be easily mistaken for books by real authors, or about recent high-news events, or popular series. There are people who steal an author’s legitimate work and “publish” it as their own work, sometimes changing a small amount, sometimes changing nothing at all. There are people who watch upcoming book releases by popular authors and release fake books around the same time, hoping to pinch some of the sales. I’d rather have sparse but reliable data than give any authenticity to the scammers and thieves.

Thank you - I appreciate the help!

Additional question, if I may? I joined kbin and was told to use boost instead of upvote (though both buttons were there). I’m now on mbin [fedia and melroy, RIP kbin] and have the same boost and upvote buttons available. Am I supposed to boost or upvote on mbin?

How do you handle returns, defective merchandise, warranties? If I buy something from you and something goes wrong with it, I’m not going to like being fobbed off with “hey, go talk to Tina”. If they return-ship something to you instead of Tina, who pays to ship it back to Tina?
