Ah, I found another solution. It does involve ordering from Germany (unfortunately), but it has some extra benefits. I found out that bookzilla.de carries many of the books, even the English paperbacks, at prices only slightly higher than in the US. A portion of Bookzilla’s profits goes towards the Free Software Foundation Europe.

I just found my perfect bookstore. Not for ebooks (yet), but we’re getting there. Too bad nothing like this exists in Switzerland.

Interestingly, the nerds who made the platform behind Bookzilla are the same nerds that made the platform behind bol.ch and books.ch. They’re a fucking awesome company.
