FWIW (and at the risk of letting the cat out of the bag :-), bookpool
has about the best price on everything -- well, everything they carry
(unfortunately they don't carry the Web Development with JSP book I
asked about :-).

A great resource for buying books online is http://www.addall.com.
It's a "meta"-bookstore -- they'll search a whole bunch of online
bookstores for price and availability, and list them in order of price
-- and they include shipping/handling/tax/etc., so they're prices are
generally accurate.  Likewise for availability and shipping.
