Such is the power of the long tail, Amazon combines massive economies of scale and scope with a optimized supply chain driven by a predictive analytics engine that can forecast efficiencies closer to god, it makes the competition both big and small irrelevant.

I'm quite surprised that there isn't some kind of international cooperative bookstore that brings together small and independent bookstores together in a kind of alliance to connect with customers around the world.
I like some of the charity book stores like oxfam but many of them don't deliver internationally.
Thank you all for your suggestions.

Dear Friends,
Can anyone suggest some alternative online book sellers to Amazon with preferably global delivery? We regularly post book reviews and even have an Amazon store embedded in the P2P blog. However considering Amazons poor labour practices we would prefer to support cooperative alternatives where possible.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions
Kevin
