British booksellers?

I've been reading some books lately I can't get in the
states, so usually I depend on ebay to get a good catch, but
sometimes I get sick of the wait. Anyone have some good
online stores (other than amazon.. or is amazon.co.uk
actually really awesome?) they can recommend? Having used
stock is essential I guess. I like science fiction, so some
specialization could be cool, though price increase due to
esoteritocaness sucks.

International postage costs for books is usually so high.
The only I buy from is this used book community
abebooks.com. This is the just different sellers from
around the world, postage is different for each one so some
are high but some have something like $7 for the first book
and $1 for each book thereafter and many of the books
themselves are only about $2 and they're perfect.

I see! it's sort of like gemm.com[c/o mappatazee] in
that it is a front/database for a bunch of stores. Pretty
sweet, thanks!

ebay is actually pretty good, just the wait can suck.

Yes I just nabbed 4 good books for $4 total (+ shipping, and
the fucking dollar conversion may have tripled by then);
ebay's the fucking way to do it.

If other people posted a lot in my topics, I wouldn't have
to. go ahead, lavish me with insults.
