I'm Tumblring...

    I love how Amazon really does undercut the competition massively. I’ve had a quick comparison with another website for a little set of books I want to pick up for summer reading:

    • Nicola Barker, Behindlings

    • Sergei Lukyanenko, The Night Watch

    • Lionel Shriver, We Need To Talk About Kevin

    • John Twelve Hawks, Dark River

    On Amazon, it’s £20.38 for the lot, delivered. Waterstone’s was £25.96, WH Smith was relatively competitive but whacked on £3 for postage, making £24.76, and the Guardian is £30.96. Only Tesco gets competitive, at £20.52, but you have enter a code for free delivery to get that.

    So, thanks to this little unscientific survey, I now know where I can buy my books. I like wasting time at work.

    I had a moment like this yesterday… Flight of the Conchords is out.. I looked on Amazon £7.98… HMV Online.. £7.99… I wandered in to HMV at lunchtime and it’s there… for £12.99… All ordered from Amazon…
