FetchBook New & Used Books: Find the Lowest Price
http://www.fetchbook.info

I have found the website, FetchBook, which I thought most book buyers would benefit from.

When looking to buy a book on the web, this free service scans 126 bookstores and 60,000 sellers in just a few seconds, and finds the book stores with the lowest prices, usually at a discount of 30% - 80% off the list price.

FetchBook provides searching services for first, second hands books though most online book stores with high credit. It also enables third parties (individuals and vendors) to sell books on an online marketplace. Some book stores offer “Library” through FetchBook to the customers, which allow you to loan books instead of buying them. Customers can also get club memberships of some book stores through FetchBook, in which way more benefits including discounts and access to members’ only sections or activities are provided.

Like a broker and underwriter in financial market, FetchBook works on a higher level than the current online book stores and individual vendors. It provides the customers with an easy approach to book searching and purchasing on line. Book stores can also reach their potential customers more by FetchBook.

If FetchBook develops quite well in the future, I expect it to become a rating and evaluating role in book sales besides just searching service provider. What’s more, for other nondistinctive products, such as air plane tickets and hotel booking, there is also possibility to establish one extra level above individual online sales websites.
