Comment on Show HN: Compare book prices across Amazon, Wordery, and the Book Depositoryparent

Comments

I used to use a couple of competitors, but I was pretty dissatisfied with them all. I thought I could do better, hence the site...

bigwords.com also only seems to work for textbooks.

You should check out my startup's site: Texts.com. We compare prices across sites like B&N, Chegg, ValoreBooks, and others. While it's targeted towards textbooks, it works very well for just about any book.

For a timesaving tip, you can type any ISBN or keyword (title, author, etc), directly into the URL to save a few seconds. IE:

http://texts.com/b/Steve Jobs Walter

>

http://texts.com/b/Steve%20Jobs%20Walter

>

http://texts.com/books/9781451648539

bigwords works for any book, simply search by ISBN
