book bargains

[pip]

Got an e-mail form an online english book store called awesome books that have made Terry Pratchett there author of the month. Had a quick peak and seems to be a reasonable selection of second hand bargains.
A few of the hardbacks are only two quid and buy two they deliver free to europe and north america.
Seems reasonable for anyone bulding up there collection.

i've had a snoop, looks interesting. The only books I need to complete my collection are Hat Full of Sky and Midnight, when that's out in paperback next year.

Bit tight for money at the moment so may prove useful

Really! Amazon says paperback is not until mid-next year.

Only seen hardbacks in shops so far, same as with all DW books...

Play.com has the paperback online.

Ireland's economy is so bad they can't afford the cardboard to make hardbacks.

Very strange. Even if that was legit, I aint payin' no £15.04!!!

£15 for a paperback - surely that can't be right?

Indeed,

Quite possibly true. Not one shop here stocked a hardback copy.
Had to order mine online to match the collection.

Crazy i agree .
My hardback cost less to get shipped in.
Average price of the paperback in a store here was around fifteen euro which is still bloody expensive. :x

GOt my UA for £3.79 on the day it came out, so I'm fine waiting another because I'm only just about to start wee Free men, so that means 8 books to go till midnight, 9 if i include ScienceIII

Good plan me thinks.

I have never

actually seen Midnight being sold at full price anywhere, everyone seems to reduce it by varying degrees.

I pre order each book as it is released as they seem to be released around my birthday.

Welcome to the site carcer!

Unfortunately, the two authors I buy brand new hardback copies of, Terry and Bernard Corwell, always seem to bring out their books at about the same time. I always buy a copy for me and one for Sharlene of each and so it tends to get expensive. Thankfully, bith TP and BC are writers whose books tend to be sold quite cheaply if you shop around.

really? thats so fab.

As spammers go, poxy10 must rank as possibly the most incompetent!
His/Her/Its links don't lead to anywhere, just a blank page.

If there was a contact address I was going to start spamming it with useless questions, or try to buy things with a fake credit card number.

In fact if you google iwantoneofthose you can't access any of the sites.

Must have gone bust due to an irritatiting sales approach.

I Want One of Those is actually quite a large mail order internet business here Pooh, I've used them for years for unusual presents. Don't know why you get a blank page (maybe because you are in Japan?) or why Proxy10 thinks it is a sensible thing to have as a tag but it's no different to linking to amazon really.

 

[Sjoerd3000]

I get a blank page too

Iwantoneofthose.com (iwoot) is a really good site for delivering items quickly and has a good returns policy.
Lately, I have only been able to access the site via firefox, but as I also have trouble accessing photobucket, that could be down to my browser.
