[Quoth]

There used to be a lively collection of second-hand bookshops here, but they have been nearly killed off by Charity shops selling cheaper (except Oxfam who can manage to equal Tesco prices). Those shops get their stock free and would be uninterested in S/H intangible goods.

Generally I'll only buy an S/H paper book from an online seller because the eBook is unavailable and paper edition is out of print.
