Thanks to Joe for sending along this link.
Check out this site: Bookfinder.com. This site lets you search over 150 million books for sale whether it be rare, out-of-print, obscure, or a textbooks, and find either original sellers in your neighborhood and the cheapest seller around. Although advocates have long spoken about the importance of supporting your local bookstore, Amazon has long been the first place I buy books because it makes shopping so easy. However, it is a hard place to find rare books or obscure out-of-print texts.
Bookfinder.com promises to be the perfect solution. Not only does this help consumers find nearby bookstores and the best bargains, it allows our consumer dollar to maintain a diverse bookselling industry. What’s more you can search by language of book, region, and currency.
