6mm-Minis

6mm-Minis is Maksim-Smelchak's blog to discuss gaming, miniatures, books, movies, food, Israel, Judaism, life in general and other funny crud. My favorite scale of miniatures is 6mm, which is also called 1/285 or 1/300 scale. I enjoy many different kinds of games including ancients, Napoleonics, WWI, WWII, the Arab-Israeli conflict, Car Wars AKA Autoduel (a sort of crash'n'derby automobile combat game), 6mm Godzilla AKA Kaiju games, and science fiction games. I'm open to everything though!

NOVELS: On Finding Used Books...

.
Hi Everyone,

The other day ago I spent some time looking for a used book and came up with bopkes (nothing). So, I made an inquiry on one of my favorite on-line forums, The Miniatures Page (TMP, link on right sidebar).

Here's what I wrote:

I followed a link last week to an awesome used/new book site that had an entry for each book that had:
- ISBN
- Links to various commercial sellers of the book including Amazon, B&N, etc.
- A descriptive blurb
- etc.

I'd like to find that site, but more to the point:

*** What are the best online resources you know of to find used or new books? Please share. ***

And here are the many great resources that others shared:

AbeBooks.com

Addall.com
http://www.addall.com/

Alibris.com

Biblio.com

Bookcrossing.com

Bookfinder.com

Fetchbook.info

Grenadierbooks.com

Powells.com

Unfortunately, I've been too blasted busy at work to evaluate all of these sellers, but I will as time permits.

Thanks again to all those who helped!


Have a great Thursday!

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
