Pretty sure Amazon just resells the books as used, for a cheaper price
You'd think the anti capitalist redditors would look fondly on this

Just pirate everything to your Kindle and you don't have to bother with returns, and still keep the book

I have like 17,000 books on ecology and WW2. All from mass torrent packages, libgen, archive.org (for very old books), Library of Congress...I didn't pay anything.
I'll never delete them because what else am I going to use all the storage space on?

I'm considering resorting to extreme measures, like getting a prison sentence on purpose, just so I can be locked in a small room with nothing to do most of the day except read shit.

The stand was great but it only needs one read

it needs multiple reads.
swan song needs more, though, since it's the superior version of the story.

goodwill. second hand stores. flea markets. yard sales.
god i unironically love going through what is basically peoples trash looking for books.
i found the entire the survivalist series at a flea market once and it was the best day of my life. the guy could have grifted the shit out of me because when i asked "how much for the whole box?" i was willing to pay any price he said no questions asked.

seriously
why go through all the trouble of ordering and returning the book? just download an epub/mobi, r-slur! you'll have the book faster and won't have to do anything other than click your mouse like 3 times.
