I really prefer hardcopies but would rather not buy from like fucking amazon yk? Feels hypocritical to buy theory even more so to buy it from some corpo. Are there any leftist co-ops selling books online or should i try to find a small book store near me that might sell what im looking for if im lucky?

Ideally i am looking for something cheap but i have the money to pay a little extra if it means im not giving my money to the bourgeois

I have had a good experience buying second hand online from https://www.betterworldbooks.com/ and https://www.thriftbooks.com/, they're both good when it comes to looking for used leftist theory books. Other than that I typically just check out my local bookstores or libraries to see if they have any used copies of something that I'm looking for, it can be really hit or miss though.
