I can't find any freakin good prices on any of these books (new OR used). If anyone could point me to where I can actually find a decent price on ANY of these, I'd appreciate it.
Game Programming Gems
Game Programming Gems 2
Swarm Intelligence: From Natural to Artificial Systems
Emergence : The Connected Lives of Ants, Brains, Cities, and Software
The Five Ages of the Universe : Inside the Physics of Eternity

I usually go to http://www.addall.com it searches and gives prices at lots of stores. Personally, I usually buy from bamm.com lately (but generally I just go whevere is cheapest.)Note when it gives the prices it factors in coupon codes if it has any available, so when you get to the site the price may be different. If you click the "Buy it" link it takes you to the page but leaves a frame at the top for coupon code. It also factors in shipping.

In case you didn't realize it, Game Programming Gems 2 isn't going to be published until August. That might be part of the reason you can't find a good price for it yet 
(The reason I know this is because my husband has two gems in the book!!
)
So definitely try http://www.bookpool.com for this sort of book. I mentioned it in the other thread, though I wasn't sure what kind of books you were looking for. Bookpool is my husband's first choice for technical books.
