    Where to buy classic Russian novels in the original Russian?

    Hi,
    Where do people here find they get the best prices (and selection) on classic Russian novels in the original Russian? Just curious if there is kind of a "go-to" site for books written in Russian, comparable to Amazon and Abebooks for books written in English.

    Thanks

    У меня есть прочные книги из издательств Дрофа, ACT, и Престиж Книги. Дрофа, в частности, издает красивые книги.

    The strange thing is that ozon.ru shipping is more than triple the cost of books.ru shipping. (700 rubles shipping on ozon.ru compared to 200 rubles shipping on books.ru) If only books.ru had the edition I want...

    There are a number of used books available on of all places eBay! Some are complete collect series like FEDOR DOSTOEVSKII 12 Volumes Russian Books Works 1982 and some just single copy like USSR book Dostoevsky Crime and Punishme in Russian,1983 (starting price .99) .... all I did was type in Russian Books and then under subject you can select "classic" or another type like poetry.
    I only speak two languages, English and bad English.

    If you have a printer, you can print texts right from http://az.lib.ru/ . And if you want to have a book, you can bind & cover the sheets.
