I have been given a number of book gift vouchers for the FNAC, the largest and cheapest book (among others) shop in town. So I was interested in getting more books for my personal bookshelf, but none of the books I'm currently interested in, was on their shelves.

I'm not yet planning on buying any of them without taking a peek inside first, so ordering the books is not a very likable option. Plus: several of these books can be bought online with a substantial discount, an advantage you most likely lose when order a book — full price, buddy. Damn.
