Ganesha Books
I have been a fan of Ganesha for years, but now have reservations.
First they don't charge an extra percentage for credit card purchases. Secondly they often have a better price than their competition on new books concerning topics about Bali and ethnographic books that are usually expensive every where.
My gripe consists of selection of used books. I don't read romance novels and mysteries which leaves little else and especially in the area of non-fiction. Also I realize that they must gain profit from their business, but when I return a book that I paid over 300.000rp for and am offered only 40.000 when the book was in good condition and only read by myself and still offered new (same edition) from their shelf, I think the margin is a bit large. This has happened numerous times, and I believe the problem rests with the owner leaving employees with strict instructions concerning offers for used books rather than using rules of judgment concerning condition age and topic.
I read a lot and having been spending substantially for used books that often turn out to be poor reads. I am in the market for a reader, and have previously purchased a nook from Barnes and Noble only to find that the keys were too small for my dill pickle sized fingers. Mac has a new product that overcomes my deficiency, and I intend to take a critical look.
