ShopBots:

A shopbot (shopping robot) is a website that links to other websites that sell a product for which the user is searching.
The shopbot displays the prices (usually shipping and tax too) and typically rates the vendors, so the user can do simple comparison shopping..

Best Book Buys lists several folk including Half.com and Amazon that charge $40 and up for new and used, and the site posts user ratings of each vendor (you can contribute your opinion if you buy this way)

AllBookStores posts similar to BestBookBuy. Note the 2004 version is much cheaper

As does AddAll (gives you a quote and similar prices). Again, the 2004 version costs much less.
