| 82980 | 2002-09-25 23:55:00 | There is a wonderful and long established bookshop in Wellington called Unity Books, that I always go to if I have time when I am in that fair city. They have a website under construction, but I don't know how long that has been the case. The url is: http://www.unitybooks.co.nz/ It has a link for emails to them, and presumably you can use that to order specific books. John |

| 82982 | 2002-09-26 02:49:00 | Keep a close eye on prices if you do look at TechBooks, I recently ordered two from Amazon with the total price including 2-3 week freight - $230. The same 2 from Techbooks would have been $350.... Mike |

| 82983 | 2002-09-26 03:08:00 | Well that was fortuitous Obelix. I have just visited your site and ordered a book that I haven't been able to locate anywhere else. What is the difference between University Book Shop and UBS? Suggestion for your website - an option to print out the order sheet, if your firm does not send an email that is confirmatory of the order - I was expecting that option to come up after I transmitted the order as it often does, but it didn't! Just a minor point for plonker punters like me... John |

| 82987 | 2002-10-20 11:53:00 | Hi Brendonny Take a look our site at http://www.quovadis.co.nz - we certainly don't have the largest catalogue on the internet, but if you have a particular book in mind, test us out with a no obligation 'find a book' query and I'll wager you won't be disappointed.

| 82988 | 2002-10-21 07:32:00 | you can also buy books at the RealGroovy (http://www.realgroovy.co.nz) site - they seem to have a great collection... ... however... ...I did a comparison with Amazon, and personally, I still think it's cheaper to order from Amazon - the delivery times are pretty similar. Otherwise, if you live in Auckland, you can always visit Borders (http://www.borders.com), suss out what books you want, then ring the Borders store in Auckland and order them through there - but it's STILL cheaper to buy them through Amazon.
