That couldn't be anymore true. Which is a big part of the reason why I'm socially progressive Tongue

Yeah, in a capitalist society, it is extremely hard to get higher social class-wise.

If I'm just picking up a book out of interest and want something good to read, a used book store is a great place to stop though. You can get some incredible deals for a great price at those places.

And now we are left with garage sales and used bookstores.

Neither of them will really help you find a specific book you need either. Textbooks, etc... are hard to come by in used stores.

At least there is amazon. Tongue

But on Amazon you have to pay shipping and handling. Undecided

We don't generally pay anything for shipping and handling books from Amazon in UK unless you want express delivery Big Grin (Provided they are Amazon and not an associated company)
