If you're in an urban/suburban area, do some research and find local bookstores to visit. Having a store with a nice atmosphere and friendly people is amazing.

just steal them you pussy
New from Amazon, every time. Hot off the machines, baby. I smooch the books when they come. Touched only by robots. Love it. Outstanding.

Down in Normal IL there's this one bookstore that has some OOOOLD ass books, really cool stuff, like relics. Doorstopping hardware catalogs from the 50s and shit. It's like a museum.
They've got a great dedicated horror and pulp sci-fi selection, which can be pretty rare outside of specialized stores.

I feel bad about supporting Amazon over independent bookstores, but I can't deny this is a great feeling

Unless you have a sweet used bookshop near you, it has to be Amazon. Barnes & Noble is a total fucking ripoff. They sell new books for the face value of 30 bucks when you can buy them brand new on amazon for 12
Bookdepository.
Or Politikens Boghal near RĂ„dhuspladsen.
I unironically like Barnes & Noble. I find them really comfy.

I have such a giant hard-on for cheap old SF and horror paperbacks. Every vacation I go on, I make it a point to stop at the place's used bookstores and pick stuff up.

I get the bulk of my books from an Oxfam used bookstore in my city. There's an independent used books and coffee store here too but I find it pretentious -- it feels more like a place where you go to drink coffee while being surrounded by books than a place you go to buy books. There's also a Waterstones but I find it overpriced. Amazon is my go to if I can't find it at the Oxfam shop.
I use a book price comparison site and get the book i'm looking for where it is the cheapest.
For mass market paperbacks I'll go to Barnes and Noble and pay the sticker price. For bigger paperbacks and hardcovers I'll get it discounted off of Amazon. I like to check out my local book shops but they never have anything good.
New on Amazon. I'm a university student in Canada so I get free 2-day shipping. I make an order of 2-4 books once a week or so. I also buy used sometimes because there's a great store near the school.
