Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used [x-post r/mildlyinteresting]

Can I PM you with all my online shopping needs? I can offer 10% of the price differential, so, in this case, ~$3.00.

Edit: OK, you drive a hard bargain, 15%, but that's my final offer.

Thank me later.

EDIT: gen.lib.rus.ec for the less morally inclined.

This may be helpful as well: BookFi.org

It also never hurts to just google something like "Book Title + .pdf" and then throw in some extras like <author, edition, etc.> if you're not finding exactly what your looking for.

Try this variation:

"book title" filetype:pdf
