Default Site better then Amazon for books

A while ago I found the site Alibris: Used Books, Used Textbooks, Rare & Out-of-Print Books and have been keeping it a secret for my own uses......but it's not fair and I figured since I was already talking to people on Chat about it I should post it up.

This site is for the most part better then Amazon and Ebay for buying any books you would want, some of the more rare books are on there for a relatively cheap price. While normal books can be bought for less then $2.

Now I do need to remind you, this is a U.S. based store, sorry buddies across the pond

Hey thanks. This could really help. I may be able to read the rest of the HH seiries at a fraction of the price.

Damn! I could order from that place but I'd have to pay an extra £6.58 on top of the books price (then wait 3-4 weeks with a potential for it to be 45 days late). Might as well pop to GW/Waterstones/Webberly's and just pay £6.99

Just checking out the UK site and idly flicking through the Dan Abnett stuff sold when I came across this- dear god almighty! I'd have to sell a kidney to buy a new copy if this is how much a second-hand one goes for....

Tactica Imperium

for us Brits the price is around about the £513 mark.
