I get every book I own on half.com. You can't believe the difference in prices, even on new books.
Well, not always. I looked at half.com for this book. The 1999 edition is advertized at 3.99, but I would prefer the newer edition since quilting tools change fairly rapidly. (The newer edition is 2006.) The new edition is currently advertized at 9.93 on half.com, but when I put that one in my shopping basket it is suddenly unavailable. It is also advertized at lots of other prices, starting at 12.15 and all the way up to 62.98 on half.com. Assuming you got the copy for 12.15, shipping puts it well over amazon's price of 14.02 with free shipping (if the total order is over $25). I think you have to compare prices, but often Amazon is better, and I have consistently had extremely good customer service from them.
