What else can we find on AliExpress?
I keep looking for books, but Amazon so far has the best discovery and search options for such.
I don't know if I'm using AliExpress right or not.
Is Alibaba any better?
Alibaba is Aliexpress, at least in Poland. Other huge online portals are Wish (it sucks, not recommended), Temu (they have slightly different things than Aliexpress so it's worth a check) and Shopee (closed in Poland so idk how it is).
Afaik they don't have many books, i barely found Little Red Book there and it's shit edition with boxes, typos and weird fonts. For books unfortunately Amazon seems to be best option, especially in Poland where we had literally 5 socialist books published in last 35 years.
True enough.
Or just get it from the original publisher or your local library.
But yeah, Amazon > Alibaba when it comes to books, at least.
I think Alibaba / AliExpress is only good for electronics and gadgets.
