Abebooks

Where over 40 million used, rare, out-of-print books are just a click away, online at abebooks.com

Alibris is the place to go when you're looking for a hard to find book. They have over 60 million used, new and hard-to-find books, from used bestsellers to classic collectibles and rare, signed first editions.

Amazon.com

Amazon.com is one of the largest bookstores on the internet, and it has a good reputation for customer service. Some authors, however, are disappointed with Amazon.com's practice of placing used book prices directly beneath their new book prices. Authors don't get royalties for used books, so buy new whenever you can.
