thalia is running a lot of dodgy business practices focused on strong-arming smaller print-shops (see German Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalia_B%C3%BCcher#Kritik https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalia_B%C3%BCcher#Kritik), I'm really fond of zvab.com where you can order from many if not most antiquarian bookshops of Europe. Cheap used books abound for 2-5 euros per book, a lot of them with free shipping depending on the shop.
EDIT: TIL: zvab is abebooks, which in turn is a subsidiary of... amazon. All roads lead to Rome.
- rv-de 7y agodidn't know that. I just like large book stores, so I habitually feel like supporting, and Thalia is the best we have here - nothing like Dussmann in Berlin, though :/ zvab looks amazing (no pun intended)! will order something right away.
