My 2 pesetas worth on buying books online from a European perspective...
I purchase lots of books via the internet, gardening and otherwise. I
used to use Amazon.com and I always found their service excellent and
very easy to use. The only serious downside was the postage cost. When
Amazon.co.uk was set up, this problem was solved to a great extent as
intra European mail charges are a lot cheaper. I have also used other UK
based internet stores such as bookshop.co.uk with similar results. A
bookshop that would ship *either* from Europe or the US would be best.
Or maybe team up with two of them, one in each continent!
