I get them from amazon used marketplace. I pay a penny a book plus postage. Although I got a kindle recently so am buying on kindle as the amount of books in this house is ridiculous (about 1,500) and we are about to move over 600 miles!

Plenty on eBay and Amazon. The best places though are charity shops, used book sellers and car boot sales.

http://bookdepository.com/ ships worldwide and is based in the UK. They aren’t used books, they’re new, just at heavily discounted prices. Plus, shipping is free! For http://thriftbooks.com/, shipping is $3.99 per item shipping to Canada and the UK.

Better World Books. I have been very happy with them. Got some obscure fantasy novels I was searching ages for. Prices are really good. And shipping was fast for international.

Brick-and-mortar charity shops are fantastic. Most sell books for £1 or less.
