When you're looking for a book, make the most of your time by focusing your search, using book search engines.
Some websites have compiled databases that let you search for a book by title, author or the book's ISBN number. When you input your information, the site goes through dozens of online bookstores and returns the results, with prices. This saves you lots of time and you'll find the best price as well. You might start with Google and type in 'book price compare'.

Just two of such book vendors that come to mind are www.abebooks.com, which stock 100 million titles, and www.biblio.com, which specializes in rare and out of print books and stocks some 45 million titles.
