Is there any website that can get you used physical books for cheaper price? I have tried Abebooks in the past but now they have been charging a lot for shipping. I am trying FB marketplace these days but so far I found very limited options and you have to drive a lot to get these. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

    I’ve always done a gamut around my state to thrift shops. Search through their books and find ones to sell/read. Probably the cheapest place to find them, and generally that’s where the books you find on websites come from honestly. They’re charging you for convenience and storing them.

    Looked it up, think goodwill may have an actual goodwillbooks website. Maybe a good place?

      They do, but I think they don’t deliver to Canada. I tried and their website doesn’t show Canada in the shipping section.

        I’ve always found it funny when my fellow Americans complain about costs. Anytime I go out of the states I end up paying an arm and a leg. 25% sales tax, exorbitant shipping. Etc.
