There are those of us left that enjoy buying actual books and building a personal library. If you are one of us, you will be interested in how to save money on books. Here are some suggestions.
Some of us just want to collect. We won't look at reprints, second editions nor do we care too much about paperbacks. Those that are like that may not find the best deal, but they will be happy with their hobby.
You can still find some very small book stores in this country where you can find great deals. They may not have the best prices to begin with, but know the owner and you will get good bargains.
If you are not addicted to pristine copies, you can find great prices at library sales, but you may find cleaner copies at yard sales or even at shops that don't specialize in books.
With best selling authors, discounts may be the best when a book is first released, so don't always wait thinking that you can get a better deal later.
Library is a great way to save, so check it out before you have to go and spend all your money on books that you will never reread.
Certain stores or outlets do not cut the dust jacket or mark the edges of remaindered books, which are sold at a fraction of the original price. Even first editions can turn up in remainder bins.
If you buy books online, always be wary of the shipping charges because it can be a significant portion of the cost. Many stores have free shipping policies, so make sure you know them and take advantage.
A book club is a great way to read new books as long as you don't care too much about future value. Give them serious consideration.
You can find great bargains online, but you must be cautious. Sometimes you may find that your local store has a better price. Online auctions and stores often charge exorbitant shipping fees. - 29864
