I buy from library sales/stores. Books are $.25-$5 max unless super collectible. Able to find whole sets. That way I still support the library with purchases. Borrow books when I can. New/full priced only rarely.

Library booksales are the best!! Mine does $1 for mass market and $2 for trade paperbacks and hardcovers

They are the best. Until the resellers show up. Nice thing is that every city has at least one library. So you miss one sale, check the next city over. $.25 for bad condition books, $.50 pb, $1 hardcover, special book room with books $1.50-$5.

Check your local libraries for stores and sales. May be run by a “friends of the library” organization. Basically volunteers. $$$ goes back to library. Also check to see if they sell on eBay. I’ve bought several sets from libraries online.

Surprisingly thrift stores have such a huge collection of books too!
