Here's a tip. If you want to buy from Amazon at an *additional* 15%
discount, join their Associate program. They pay a 15% referral fee for any
book sold through the program, and will pay associates for their own
purchases as well :)

You don't even really need a site, I guess. All you need is the ISBN and
your account number. Type that into the browser window and it will do the
rest... :)
