Raven Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) I've had a quick look, but I can't seem to find an appropriate thread for this (could this be pinned, so people can post warnings about different book bargains?). Just a quick heads-up, but Waterstones have a 3 for 2 on all of their classic novels at the moment. (And could a friendly Mod also correct my poor spelling in the title!).

BookJumper Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Green Metropolis is having a HUGE summer sale - and when I say huge I mean it took me two hours to look through my favourite genres - which returned me 7 books (all in good, excellent or as new condition) for Quote
Ben Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) Amazon always have some pretty good offers on books because I get an email every week from them with good deals. On another note I'm making a mental note to stay away from the online sales, otherwise it could mean finding more space. Edited July 2, 2010 by Ben Quote

Guest velocipede2288 Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) I have found you can't beat Amazon.com for bargains. Often used books are only one pence, plus postage. Also, charity shops. Bought two Colin Deter's Morse books this week end in a charity shop, they are like new. And of course, there is the library, that doesn't cost anything. I have built a substatial library over the years by buying in such a way and from second hadn book shops. Edited September 22, 2009 by Michelle bolding removed Quote

atticjnr Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Anyone in London, theres a Books etc. in Victoria Station, on the strip of shops just before you go outside and end up facing Colonnade Walk (or whatever it is called) and they are having a closing down sale with discount on almost everything. Most stuff is 10% off but there are some things that are 50% and certain things may be more but I couldn't say for sure about that. Got myself a stack of Terry Pratchetts earlier and felt everyone should know! Quote
