I buy 99% of my books from one of those sites. New ones are even cheaper than B&N.

Don't be afraid to try used books. A lot of the books are listed as Used-Very Good Condition. When I've received them, they look as good as new.

Absolutely. I've yet to get a bad book doing it this way. Saves a ton of money too.

Heheh I got a used version of this for Xmas, reading it now.

O'L Doughnuts had his work cut out for him fighting the beaurocracy. I was also surprised at the Number of and versions of Type 2 Ducks there were.

Cheers

I don't want to spoil the ending, but here is a hint

Many of us drive Japanese or German cars.

I had to get mine used--it looks brand new though. I think it's out of print. I haven't ordered Volume II yet though, "The Hunted". I'll wait until the add-on for years 1943 to 1945 for SHV!
