BoB has a very poor user interface and I hate searching for books there - but since I've had less problems with geographical restrictions there, they have gotten my money more often lately.

I'm becoming more and more disenchanted with FW. The geographical restrictions are just becoming tedious. I changed my address to a US address, and that works when buying with micropay, but I can't buy much with a cc or paypal that has a 100% rebate on it, which to be honest was one of the main things that kept me there. They are really slow to get a lot of new releases out, especially the last 2 Sherrilyn Kenyons, I'm impatient, I want my books now dammit! Also, I don't know if it's just my inner cheapskate, but the rebates feel like they're getting smaller, especially the last two weeks.

I've bought a few books from BoB, but I really hate their website, it takes forever to load a page, but they do seem to get books out a lot quicker. I think they are also going to be getting more of my money in the future.
