When it comes to technical books, I'd rather deal directly with @pragprog, @ManningBooks @leanpub or @Apress than go through Amazon. It's a shame that @OReillyMedia doesn't sell direct anymore.

The thing about @JustStrings and @StringsByMail is that both companies are staffed by music enthusiasts who care about their products and their customers. At this scale, Amazon doesn't come close. Prices are all over the place, and you often don't know who you're buying from.

Amazon isn't better for everything (or even many things). For guitar strings, I buy from @JustStrings and @StringsByMail. Both have great prices, huge selection and excellent customer service - and it's all very consistent.
