Excellent -- I was able to find the two books I wanted to order at a great price. Your site politely informed me that if I just spent $4 more, I could qualify for free shipping. So I started searching and quickly found another book to purchase.

I wanted to read The Human Stain by Philip Roth. I have only read a few of Roth's works. The subject matter interests me and he is one of the greatest American writers.

I used to love going to our local bookstores in my city (Atlanta), including the shops that sold used books. They are mostly all closed now, devoured by Amazon and Barnes & Noble. I heard about your site on Twitter. This is a wonderful place to find books.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
