I have found using
http://www.bookbrain.co.uk/ much better as it tells you who is the cheapest for which book.
I find it better to use than any other price checker site. As it is just for books.

Another good book specific search engine is https://www.find-book.co.uk and there is a whole series of these websites;
https://www.find-dvd.co.uk
https://www.find-cd.co.uk
https://www.find-games.co.uk0 -
Thanks for all the above, having done tonnes of research from here, have come across all the above!. My point was they are by far the cheapest around & with free delivery anywhere you can't really go wrong!!.No one said it was gonna be easy!0

Agreed but I was pointing out to others that they might like to do research as the books you ordered may have been cheaper but for some that other people might want they might not be.
But then when you have free amazon vouchers I don't worry about paying a little bit more as it is still free

I used to use bookbrain but I sometimes find some books are not listed even though I know they are in print. Then I found https://www.123pricecheck.com and would recomend it highly.0

Thanks for that never come across them before. But always handy to have to pass on to others.

I used find-book.co.uk and finally found the book ive been looking for. The book was on my university reading list for next year but all the major bookshops have told me they didnt stock it and it was out of print. Cheers jackb.0

Another good place for books, if you don't mind used ones is http://www.greenmetropolis.com . All books are £3.75 and nearly all are free delivery. Even if you have to pay delivery you never pay more than about £1.50. Also after you have read the book you can resell it on there and get £3.00 back. 5P from every book also goes to the 'Tree For All' campaign by the woodland trust.0
