Yikes! Almost all the books I buy are used, through resellers, and I ... buy a lot! Maybe not quite 100 per year, but tens and tens, and at one point I got a somewhat up to date but still used set of first year and a bit beyond college textbooks. And I can't recall a single one not arriving (the condition it was in, that can be another story). Ah! And I had to replace on the order of 50 of them after a tornado trashed my apartment, but fortunately only a small fraction of my books. So I guess this must be a regional thing.
