Site is easy to navigate. I appreciate the different types of books I can choose from (new, used, hardcover, paperback, etc.).
I like to shop at independent bookstores.

I am always leary of shopping online. I have looked everywhere for this book, so the website was easy to use.
Just put in isbn and chose the reasonable price.

Website confusing - can't follow some things they want. Shipping is way too high for books, some of which are used paperbacks.
Didn't choose it. I got there somehow - I guess by a book title I was looking for.

It comes out within pennies of what Mayo Clinic is charging. I'm not highly impressed but I want to get it.
Because it is all set up and easy to do.

Updating billing address was obstinate for some reason. Going out of the page and going back in allowed it to work.
Best online source of any book I have been in the market for. Plus it's not the big A company with the penis in their logo.
