OK so anything else than Amazon?
I like Amazon because it has good prices usually, but I've had some problems with the shipping part, it can really vary. Plus, the cost of S&H is always like £10 for two books or so, and still, it might take a while to get it.
They have all kinds of super saver deals and whatnot, but they're always regional, like for amazon.co.uk, you have to have a UK address to get those sweet deals. So I've spent a considerable amount of money there and throw in couple of hundred every month and never get a single kickback, and I see this deals going on all the time, but their racist policies leave me out of them.
So since I'm buying books, what seems to me a considerable portion of my salary every month, I'd like to get to know some other book stores. There are some decent sellers at Amazon, but get a book or two here and there, soon you'll be covered with various shipping costs from everyone so it wasn't so cheap after all. Plus, these lying sacks of crap usually do not deliver like promised, as in "so I got an e-mail the order has dispatched but it's been 2 weeks already, do you have a tracking code to see if it went missing?". Then like no no, we don't give you the code, or check it for you, there has been postal service problems "in Europe", so other customers have said they have waited like 4 weeks. YOU LYING MOTHER****ER! You know, it's not that there are delays, but don't lie to my face, I know you are shipping your stuff every week or two weeks or when there's enough orders so you are saving some money, don't ****ing lie that "european post" has problems, I got a DVD from the US within a week, so your UK delivery takes a MONTH after dispatch and that's "normal"? No way dude.
So... a book store that has enough titles, because I like buying everything from one place so there's no massive shipping and handling costs and I like the fact that things get done with one company and not multiple jerks.
So any links? It doesn't matter where they are located really, as long as they have good shipping and they have good prices and lots of titles. And oh yeah, it wouldn't hurt if they have some bonuses or deals with customers who often buy from there, like a point system or just about anything. I haven't got anything from Amazon and I've spent like... maybe closer to 2500 euros there within the last 12 months, I know I'm not a big customer but come on, give me a break, I think I should be considered a good damn customer and there's all kinds of crumbles falling from the table but I'm not eligible for any of them because my poor ass isn't a resident in country X.
