Minor point as I've met people who don't get this - authors and publishers are only paid for the **new** copies of their books. When you buy books from any kind of second-hand store, it's only the store owner getting the money. I came to the belated realisation that my years of finding old SF books in such stores wasn't helping authors and started buying e-books instead.
