The Book Depository

[MonkeyCatcher]

I just found out about a site similar to Amazon that some of you may be interested in - they offer free international shipping on everything, with no minimum order required. I believe that their product pricings are similar to that of Amazon.

The Book Depository.

Happy Buying

You just can't beat Amazon's Marketplace. Used books for insanely low prices. I'm addicted. Not to mention I have no idea how much a pound is in dollars.

Edit: I just saw that you live in New Zealand... ignore me.

Yeah, I would love to use Amazon, as their used prices are extremely cheap, but they charge a fortune in shipping to NZ. I started this thread mainly for the people who live outside the UK and US, and who therefore find it hard to get books from places like Amazon at a relatively low cost.

great site!

i find www.play.com to be good too with free postage

Interesting site, MC! Have you bought anything from there yet?

Unfortunately, I don't stay in Other Countries, so no luck for me.

Not yet as I'm currently on a book-buying embargo, but once that's over I will definitely be ordering a few more obscure ones from there.

I buy a lot from play.com and amazon.co.uk and amazon.com.
I think there's a Book Depository on amazon.co.uk's market place. Could be the same place. I've ordered from them via amazon, good service.

The Book Depository on Amazon is the same shop. That's where I first found out about them. They have excellent service both from the marketplace and from their website. I used them several times with no problems. Same with Play. I prefer Play and TBD to Amazon, but they don't always sell everything I'm after.
