I have to agree. This place is awesome <3Berkelouw Books in Oxford Street is one of my favourite first and second hand bookstores in Sydney.
it's called goulds. there's just no point going there if you are looking for something in particular because you will never find it. it's a massive warehouse full of second hand books that are not really sorted into any particular order, so it's fun if you just want to pick up anythingI have to agree. This place is awesome <3
Also, have a look around at book exchanges and second hand bookstores and even just thrift stores and op shops like the Salvos and Lifeline. Markets and garage sales and all that. Sometimes libraries sell old library books for cheap too.
There's also a super huge second hand bookstore in Newtown. I don't quite remember the name of the store though.
Borders generally have discount tables as well.
I might visit there when I'm in Sydney next... saturday?

this place is awesome, picked up a robin hobb for 6.95. they have some good stuff.Basement Books in Railway Square.
They normally have most of the Wordsworth Edition classics for $7 each. I go in a every few months and spend about $50 buying anything that looks good. I normally walk away with 10 or so books. Reason most of them are so cheap is because they have slight defects which makes them unsellable at retail price, but still readable.this place is awesome, picked up a robin hobb for 6.95. they have some good stuff.

Seconded (or thirded whatever). Best collection of non-fiction stuff. Some of them not that old, probs less than 5 years.Basement Books in Railway Square.
You are a silly flying... thing.Im not really sure, but i think from a book store? Im pretty sure they sell books? Oh wait dont worry, they sell Bananna's.
i haven't seen them yet (i tend to hover near sci-fi/fantasy) but i'll check that out the next time i'm there, there are a few classics i want to get... i was lucky, mine was in mint condition. i think a lot of their stuff is remainder stock too, like the last dregs the publishers want to get rid of.They normally have most of the Wordsworth Edition classics for $7 each.
