I just wanted to share that I have had nothing but positive experiences using Amazon marketplace for cookbooks. If you are not familiar with that when you go to Amazon on most books they will have a new and used link.
A lot of the cookbooks are less than a $1 but you do have to pay $4 for shipping. No free shipping applies even at over $25.
But I got an Herb Farm cookbook hardcover that looked totally new even though it was listed as used for around $7 including shipping.
I do check the feedback. If it is in the mid 90s positive I have no worries. Just another option. I am ordering my second Food Across America from the American dieaticians association. I may have the title wrong. But it is costing me less than $5 shipped which is a significant savings over the $18 even with free shipping cost.
Anyhow it makes many cookbooks and other books affordable that I would otherwise not get. And even with the net and having wireless there is still something non-replacable about having a cookbook.
