But the books confuse me. There is a handful of books in pack on ebay and fk. But some books come in two parts (like HP7 in two books). :S

Thanks for ur reply!
If price written on FK is correct then its cheaper cos I won't get more than 10% off at book shop at College Street,Kolkata.
But,saw many books are old not current Edition.
Some books are very old.
Saw 'Publication Year 2004' written at info bar.
I need to buy few books on Architecture.
Currently all Diwali or Puja offer only for Electronics goods.

@Revolution : hard cover versions are normally released first. Paper quality too is far superior, but they cost much more than the paperbacks.
FK started with books so they are OK. Once again competition has forced others to give better discounts sometimes. So, like with any other product look around.

Thanks for ur advice.
I will check other sites too.
Though my books not popular so may not be available every where.
One thing is holding me back is that the Publication Year.
I want to buy latest edition.

^^Not much will be different in case of educational books. Those publishers just change a few things here and there so that people don't buy second hand books and always go for the "latest publication." Unless there has been a big syllabus change in the university recently, you should be fine.

But still amazon is best for book. Lowest prices and no limit on free home delivery

But pathetic packing. Comes without any packing in just a plastic bag. Every time. Not just once.
I got it in a big box; you can check my post(a few months back) in the show-off thread. I think they are improving, in spite of all the governmental roadblocks they have.
While Amazon.in is not yet on Track according to me with its full operations due to FDI regulations in Ecomm.
I'm Sure once that's over, Flipkart is no longer #1 in India though i want a desi brand to be a leader in the world.
Buying Books on Amazon Doesn't sound Great Except for pricing, I buy books from goodvalue.in which is currently down for renovation and Flipkart is secondary choice.

yep that's a proper word. Pathetic would be better if the cover or the pages of the book are torn.

Oh I didn't get pages torn, but the hard bound cover of dan brown inferno was damaged.
And the second d time I ordered many pages were folded..
Atleast one layer of bubble wrap?
Oh that's weird there packing might vary from city to city... I recently ordered two books from Amazon to test how they are... They were packed in an envelope which has bubble wrapping on the inside and the books themselves have a lamination...
I have ordered many things from Amazon. Com and it's the same envelope that they use in US that they are using here...

The FDI in retail does not do a lot for e-commerce companies. FK is going to hold on to its spot for longer. HAd they failed to get more funding then amazon would have got an edge.
