[MR] Re: booksellers

I love ABE.  But, it only searches the stocks of the booksellers who
have joined it.  Check out www.addall.com, which has books that ABE
doesn't have.  The main screen is for new books, but there's a link at
the bottom of the search box for used books, too.  I think that ABE did
so well, so other independent bookstores have started forming other
groups.  AddAll searches ABE and a bunch of other sources at the same
time.  They do price comparison, too, so you can find the place with
the best deal (especially good for new books sold by Amazon, Wal-Mart,
independents, Barnes & Noble, et al).

(There are quite a few sellers of "Fustat Finds" listed at AddAll, by
the way.)

ABEbooks  (for heaven's sake make SURE you have the 's' in there..) is
the Advanced Book Exchange . . .

It searches all the bookstore stocks and finds you book. It then give
you all the payment and contact information for the prticular bookstore
and you deal straight with them.

I've had nothing but good luck, myself, so far. Your mileage mave vary.
