Betterworld - Ecologically and Socially responsible book buying

by Bergo

Recently I mentioned that International Shipping rates were up.

And then I stumbled upon, BetterWorld.com. From their site:

Can you fund literacy, care for the environment,
and get a fair price on the books you want?
Yep. You’re doing it right now.

I think that’s pretty cool.

So, I don’t have any magic way of searching their database, and showing the results when you search for a book. But you might want to take a look.

It’s $2.97 USD to ship internationally !

That’s $9 - $10 cheaper than Amazon.com and Alibris.

I am still waiting for my book to arrive (should be a few weeks).

It’s Another option for grabbing a bargain and helping fun literacy in underprivileged countries overseas.
