You know, these days, when I'm looking for books online, I'm beginning to favor non-Amazon sellers. Fictionwise for ebooks, Abebooks for used books, Lulu for POD, etc. Recently I happily discovered The Book Depository, a UK based seller of new books at very good prices.
Too much economic weight in a single basket: not a good thing, ultimately. |
yes, i agree. i get worried when i see someone who wants to make the ultra-mega-giga-of-the-universe *anything*. i use amazon for browsing (i like the "search inside" feature) and for keeping track of things with my wishlist, but i don't buy from them anymore...
