That's a point. I do like to try to order from local bookstores where I=20 can, but I ordered one book through Dymocks rather than amazon, and=20 Dymocks wanted to charge me $250 - after quoting $150 or less for the=20 book, which is something like $US40-50. I recently found the same book at=20 another bookstore in town for $AUD80 ... not happy!

FWIW though, I find I get my books much cheaper and much FASTER ordering from Amazon. It's a disgusting reflection on Dymock's service really.
