I have used Book Depository a few times now and they have a wide selection of books all at prices below retail. Shipping is not the fastest but it's FREE.
Bought all my med books here for less than half the price compared to the uni book shop, free delivery too so its cheaper than amazon, even found a few books thats not available at the bookshop :) delivery took a bit longer than amazon but i was kept informed about the delivery status so it was all good, definitely will buy my textbooks for next year here too
I bought three photography books from this website for approx $110 total. They have free shipping worldwide on all their orders which is great. Shipping is of course slower than buying from an Australian website, but it only took a little under 3 weeks to arrive which I thought was reasonable. They ship the items well so the books didn't get damaged and the prices were the best I've seen anywhere. One of the books was half the price of what I have seen in Aus retailers. Would most definitely use this site again.
The Book Depository - Cheap Books with Free Shipping
The book depository is a UK based e-store dealing in a massive range of books and ebooks. I have used this website to buy university textbooks, novels as well as gifts for other people.
The website is easy to use and supports an account-based wishlist. One downfall is that there is no 'remember me' option for easily signing in.
The range of books is immense! Classics to cookbooks to textbooks and more - all of this comes with free worldwide shipping. Shipping can be lengthy - to Australia you can expect three to four weeks of waiting time.
Despite the lengthy delivery time, the prices will probably beat your local bookstore on most titles - especially textbooks.
Returns are possible for books damaged during shipping. The help service is quick and polite.
The Book Depository is easily the leading online bookstore out there. Check it out!

The prices on Book Depository always seems to be lower than other online stores, like Fishpond.
Their search engine is pretty smart, so finding the books I'm after is quite easy.
