I buy and read a lot of books. If you do as well, you might find this handy little tool called Booksprice useful. The tool allows you to enter a book title or ISBN and then get a report of the current price from dozens of sources including sources like eBay.

Here an example search using Duct Tape Marketing: The World’s Most Practical Small Business Marketing Guide

You can also use the service to compare prices on CDs, DVDs, and games.

Share and Enjoy:

Thanks for the link. I will share it with my fellow online book addicts. Another (similar) site is http://www.fetchbook.info/, which compares prices at 126 stores.

That’s a great tool. A tool I like is my county library’s website (www.kcls.org). I can place holds of any book online and then see when it arrives. Then I just pick it up for free. You can get a harvard business school education for the charge of late fees.

…It’s not so great if you’re in the UK. I did a search for a big political book that’s just come out here - Alistair Campbell’s Diaries, the Blair years - and it got zilch. Same with fetchbook.
I don’t understand why so many sites don’t add UK, Canada, Oz and NZ listings - for just a bit more coding, they increase their potential client base by millions! Defies sense.

Kelkoo is still the best for this kind of thing…inclueds Waterstones, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, et al…

Hi,

Don’t forget Best Book Combo.

It gives you the lowest overall cost of a set of books.

Very helpful if you are buying from a store like AbeBooks, whose sellers each have their own shipping rates.

You will save hours with this service.
