On the other hand, I have not really looked into BoB. Can anyone summarize the pros and cons of BoB as a customer?

I most often make purchases in mobi format since they are easiest to shift for my Kindle. I have a couple ereader files, but most of my collection is mobi/azw.

I do still make purchases from Amazon too.
I'm confused what kind of books are you buying? Amazon usually has the best prices.


As for FW I let my membership expire earlier this year. I found that the 15% off just not a good deal anymore. Many stores vary in price some as much as 30% normal prices plus many of the books I want to read are not carried by FW. BoB has a much larger selection than FW.

What I have found is prices are not all even. I usually search all the books stores before I buy then buy the cheapest book. As a result I've bought from eReader, Diesel, BoB and FW.

If FW has a great promo for their Buywise club, I will join ,but the 15% saving is just not enough to warrant spending $25.
