genialokal.de is backed by over 750 owner-managed bookshops across Germany. Since 2015, the joint umbrella brand has stood for the goal of strengthening the local book trade, with 80% of users using the delivery option "click&collect" to pick up their order from their local book store.

In Benelux we also have Bol.com as an Amazon alternative.

I have never in my life purchased anything from Amazon and am fully intending to keep it that way.
