I've decided that from now on I will buy books at bargain outlets, then give them as presents later.
Impatience costs people lots of money. Lesson learned.

On the rare occasion when I want to buy a book, I always check half.com and amazon.com. I almost always find a used copy of what I'm looking for for a fraction of the original price.
