Same question for us poor germans.

Sometimes, if you have the ISBN numbers, author name and title, your local (non-gaming) bookstore can order, maybe even pre-order some books for you. My local Waldenbooks has done that for me numerous times, but I admit I haven't really tried to get game sourcebooks out of them yet. I would say a rule of thumb might be, if they have a RPG section of the bookstore, you can try to order through them. It doesn't hurt to ask about it. I have heard awful things about pre-ordering through Amazon though.

Your FLGS. They may not carry them, but they usually do order them if you ask. I've yet to meet the store owner that said "No, I don't want your money, thakns anyways".

Just let them know what you're looking for, and if it's out , they can order it.
