You are absolutely right. France and e-commerce are not
yet on the same wavelength. This is the stone age. I've tried
ALL (I repeat 'all') french on-line book ordering systems and
no one reaches 1% of amazon.com user's friendlyness...
You can try http://www.proxis.be for french books, it's
a belgian company (my country) and works, well... not too
bad (but they don't have the 'Dictionnaire des Voyages
Extraordinaires' for instance...)
Cheers,
EA
