Default Where do you buy your books?

I remember someone posting a link to a really cheap books store, now i can't find it


So where do you buy your cheap books?!?!?!

edit:Alibris: Used Books, Used Textbooks, Rare & Out-of-Print Books

Thriftbooks - Used Books. Best Prices. Best Service..

was it one of these?

Occasionally I'll pop into GW for those sorts of books, or if I'm looking for a bigger selection I usually frequent Waterstones or Webberly's (if you read this Cag- webberly's has more BL books that GW does, an entire book case in fact)

Barnes and Noble is great. A cup of coffee, a snack, and a lounge chair with a book. Sweeet. If I am looking for used books I will use Amazon.

amazon and barnes and nobles. For the previous, both the online store and the actual shop.

In Dhaka... I sometimes go to the local english book stores... but they have NO good books (NO MALAZAN! none of the usual cheaper fantasy stuff... only HP and LOTR...)

it is all well and good getting the books at £3 or so at Amazon, but then having to pay £12+ p&p to avoid having to wait for the last book to be released before you get any of them isn't worthwhile.

plus with play, i normally get the advance orders 1-2 weeks before GW stores officially release them!
