Finding cheap used/out-of-print books

[Chumbawamba]

BTW, a good place to source used or out of print tomes is used.addall.net. It's a used bookstore network meta search engine, meaning it searches other search engines and then aggregates the results for you in one place. It searches all the major networks (ABEbooks, Amazon, Alibris, etc.) and you can sort by price to find the best deal. I've used it to find all manner of rare book. I found a $75 copy of Ammen's book this way (the cheapest I could find).

No way...the best price is RIGHT HERE!!!!!...go to "book section" and download Ammen book completly free...this is the good new..the bad new is that you need DjVu files to read it...also free available in this Forum by me.

Sometimes it's much better to get a hard copy.
I have The Chemistry of Gold Extraction in hard copy and I simply like it that way.

Me too! I have Hoke hardbound, as well as Gadja and others. Just suits me that way I guess.

I like hard copies, way better, also. However, this $142 book (Amazon price), "The Chemistry of Gold Extraction", is almost completely available on Google books. You can't download it but you can read it. Anytime you see a newish high dollar technical book you want, search for it on Google Books. Some only give you a few pages to read. Others, like this example, give you almost the whole book.

I'm surprised you haven't burned the Gadja book yet. It has the distinction of being the most worthless refining book ever written. I know that Harold and 4metals will back me up on that.

I'd donate my copy of Gadja for a public book burning, just say where and when.
