Avenue Victor Hugo Bookshop

If you're looking for something hard to find I recommend

Avenue Victor Hugo Bookshop

as a starter point. There are some long-term bookshop people there. I'm talking in the multi-decade league. They also stock a good number of good new books. Good bookshop, good cat, good people.

For new books I can't help but recommend BookSense.com and we have an affiliate program up so that my editorial judgment can be as impaired.

BookSense.com

Book Search Services
These sites search at least two or three (and often more) of the listings sites below. They are free to use and are funded by (non-intrusive) advertising. Bookfinder is the mother-of-all book comparison sites whereas 123pix and Addall boast CD's and many other products.

Book Listings
These are sites that book shops pay to list their books. Here you will find many copies of most common books and usually at least a few of uncommon ones. Some of them are bigger than others, some of them are better designed but none of them are charging you 20% to use them (in other words alibris).
