eBay and Amazon both have used books for dirt cheap prices.

Just a comment about Amazon.

I am working on a project that needed some books by certain authors. No
subsitutes would work. I looked them up everywhere and all the books except
one were only available used. And one book only became available the third
time I looked. I ordered them last week. The last one arrived today. I had
to pay $4 shipping for each one. But I got them in. I am all set.

Also, the reviews on amazon were very good to help determine if these books
would work.

Yeah, they have helped me previously, too. I also go to www.ISBN.nu
for books. They and www.ABEBOOKS.com sometimes have authors I don't
find in abundance (or cheap enough on Amazone or eBay. And I just
_love_ buying a once-read book for a tenth of the cover price. I don't
mind spending a penny plus $3.99 shipping for the occasional NEW book
from Amazon, either.
