Jean Grey 2,400 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I only know : http://www.bookdepository.com/it's very good site but once my book came kinda damaged (not a big deal but still) http://www.thriftbooks.com/they have used books - I've recently ordered french textbooks and they are in very good condition <3 I think I will more books from them~ And of course - ebay and amazon (well I can't use it, because they don't have paypal option). Can you recommend me more sites? It would be very helpful Nowadays I am very interested in comic books, so please give me a link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow White 1,292 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I think it depends on where you live. I'm from Europe so most of the websites with cheap books are still very expensive to me when I add shipping, apart from Book Depository (lucky those leaving in the US or UK *sigh*) Personally, I look for good offers on amazon (uk and de) but I tend to look for "used-very good" or new books, cause I once got a book in pretty bad condition that was supposed to be "good". I also buy lots of books on awesomebooks - there are lots of used books for 2,49 or 2,59 pounds and most of the ones I ordered were actually in very good, almost new condition. They have a 2,99 shipping but it's still a lot cheaper for me, especially when I buy more books at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you even contact the seller? And thanks for your help~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks for your help~ Lol, sorry! I guess it's too late and my brain doesn't work properly xD I didn't contact the seller, because I didn't have money to send the book back at that moment and deal with the returns. The book was clean but someone folded the front cover in half (and it was a hardback, idk who even does this) and straightened it. I guess our definition of "good" was different, lol. So if you don't mind used books, I think awesomebooks could be one of the best choices for you It's the cheapest I can get books in English, since amazon counts 4 pounds for the shipping of each book. Well, that and sometimes I find something good on allegro too ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ale teraz bd pamiętać aby sprawdzać allegro, dzięki~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
