    I mostly buy mine from Amazon, but occasionally I'll try Play as they don't charge for shipping.

    If I physically visit a bookstore it will be Waterstones.

    dont by non technical books really

    never tried play for techy books, ill have a look

    dont buy at stores, walk in there and have a look, then get depressed at the cheeky price tag
    used to by from www.pcbookshop.co.uk but thier prices went up a bit when they turned into 'holbornbooks' or whatever they are called now
    there shop used to be real cool tho, just racks of pc books :)

    for my sins, I research on Amazon and normally buy from eBay. An example I'll use is this book , which is normally whoppingly expensive. £9.50, including postage.

    EDIT: and every tech should own one.
