1. Want lowest possible prices on (technical) books
2. Don't care if books are used
3. Don't mind waiting a bit for delivery
Then use
Addall.com to find international editions of books.
Even if you are not buying technical books, Addall.com is nice because it summarizes the total cost (book + shipping). The best feature is that you can buy "international versions" of books. Technically, these books are not supposed to be sold in the U.S.
Still interested, huh? :-)
I did a small, non-scientific comparision between Addall and Bookpool. Books are new unless specified otherwise. International editions are often paperback and use lower quality paper.
The first 2 books are very technical. The last 2 have a wider audience. Notice the huge price difference for the niche books, and the modest difference for more typical books.
