Best book bargains: library fund-raising sales. Hardcovers usually priced $1-4; paperbacks about half that.
Of books that made a big splash when they came out, there is usually a glut of donations about two years later. That's how long people hang on to unwelcome gifts. These are in mint condition; hardly opened.
They come around again five years later, when serious readers get rid of topical books they bought for themselves and read. Now they're running out of shelf-space and know they won't read that one again.
