July 1, 2005 in 4 out of 5 stars, A store, A website

What is it?

BookPool.com: Discount Computer Books. They've got all sorts of computer books, and at excellent prices.

Why is it the killerest?

The prices. They're stellar. For example, I was able to get 4 SQL Server books there for $117 including  2nd Day Air Shipping. At Amazon the same books would have been between $135 and $180 (depending upon shipping options) for 2nd Day Air. Plus, BookPool.com was able to fulfill and ship my order much more quickly than Amazon.com tends to. I've ordered from them a number of times, they're completely worthy of my repeat business

What could be improved?

Not much in my mind. Sure, Amazon.com lets you browse books, see ratings and stuff first (but hey, there's no reason you can't do that, and then go buy your books on BookPool.com). BookPool just sells books, cheap and fast.
