Interesting subject @CaptainGrumpy and @Heloise. I am going down to my local bookshop today to order two books. I know I will pay a bit more but if we don't support these people, they will go out of business and then we will be restricted to only buying what we want from Amazon. However, I do accept that it is a totally different situation to what @Heloise faced in her professional life. But I do agree with @CaptainGrumpy's comment that we might pay a bit more but we do have so many services here. I have used the medical industry quite extensively in the past ten years!! I did hear one comment the other day that if the price of eggs had risen as fast as medical costs in the US, a dozen would cost $85. That stuck in my mind.

But it is so good that we can have views put up here without any abuse.

I get 25% at my bookstore so is cheaper than amazon anyway.
Agree I had a bookstore for a while its a tough gig then must be near impossible now

There will always be 2nd hand and niche bookstores though
