I can, without any equivocation, most highly recommend several on-line dealers who are not only based in Las Vegas, but also have brick-and-mortar stores here:
Plaza Books: Plaza Books
Cat's Curiosities: Cat's Curiosities
Amber Unicorn Books: Amber Unicorn
And, Greyhound's Books sells only in the store, but does have a web presence: Greyhound's Books
A venue for information on books you may -or may not - know about provided by a professional bookman.

This just in from a Colleague
I do tend to bemoan the lack of professionalism demonstrated by many - not all - on-line book sellers. The true Bookmen are OK, but these folks comprise only about a quarter of the internet selling community. One of our colleagues sent the following our to our Bookmans Guild members for our information, and delectation:
From Our Colleague to "Better World Books", Indiana regarding a copy of Ian Fleming's Casino Royale they have for sale, a purported First Edition:
Wondering whether this copy of "Casino Royale" could really be a Macmillan 1953 or '54 edition (as advertised) in the classic red & green dust wrapper, not the far more common book club edition in gray banded DJ with tiny silhouettes of babe and pistol (of which every used book dealer has thrown away dozens)

Internet Idiots - One of Many
We do not sell on line - I'm too lazy, like the education customers give us, and want our clients to be able to handle the books before they buy them. There are, unfortunately, a large number of idiots out there on the Internet who are selling books, but not necessarily the ones they advertise for sale. Which of these dealers would you buy from ?
