AbeBooks.com is not an individual online bookstore but a huge network of independent booksellers, all congregated in one place. It constitutes the world's largest online marketplace for new, used, rare, and out-of-print books, with approximately 13,500 booksellers, altogether selling upwards of 110 million books. Each bookseller at AbeBooks has its own policies regarding delivery methods, rates and speeds. However, all of them offer a 30-day money-back guarantee and must process and ship orders within 48 hours in accordance with the terms of being an AbeBooks bookseller.

Books at AbeBooks.com can be searched for by author, title, keyword, ISBN, publisher, published date, price, or bookseller country. Customers can also browse the books by category or browse the booksellers. Upon finding and clicking on a book of interest, the customer is presented with details of the book, as well as details of the bookseller, such as its rating, accepted payment options, and delivery rates and speeds.

In addition to being a major bookseller marketplace, AbeBooks is a book enthusiast socializing hotspot. The AbeBooks community forums are a very popular destination for book discussions and debates, while the AbeBooks Avid Reader Book Club promotes discussions and activities related to specific books, selected through a voting system. After choosing a book, members of the club are given a suggested reading schedule and a list of points to consider for discussion in the forums after reading the book. Contribution to the book discussions can be made at any time, so members are not bound by any deadlines. AbeBooks also stimulate social activities through other means, such as by running various workshops, programs and contests. Some of these activities are purely for fun, while others have a more serious objective, like promoting reading or enhancing writing skills.

One very interesting service available at AbeBooks is BookSleuth. It allows customers that have read a book but cannot remember its name to submit a description of the book for others to read and possibly help name it. Another interesting service is GiftSleuth. This is basically a forum in which members help eachother identify the perfect book gift for particular people, based on a description of the person's interests.
