(in alphabetical order by country? - Jan)

Austria

  • [ext] Columbus has a few different go sets (19x19 board with bowls and stones, or 9x9 board with bowls and stones). The sets are of nice quality but not too expensive (pictures on the website). They don't sell go books. Material can be ordered in the web-shop or via mail. --LoP

France

Netherlands

  • Schaak- en Go-winkel 'het Paard' - Shop in Amsterdam carrying Go sets, programs, and a lot of books. Also has chess stuff and puzzles etcetera. The website is [ext] here. It even has a page at Sensei's!
  • Game shops 'van der Meijden' and 'De Joker' in Utrecht both have a small selection of Go sets. No books though, and no websites either.
  • Book shop 'van der Galie', also in Utrecht, occasionally has a few second-hand Go books (in the basement). Rumor has it that an ex-employee of 'het Paard' works there now and is going to throw some chess books out in favor of Go books :-)
  • The Go Club Utrecht sells the more popular stock of 'het Paard' at a 10% discount. However, you have to be a member...

Sweden

  • [ext] Go Public - Web based shop in Stockholm. Many, many books and a fair selection of boards and stones.

Switzerland

  • The [ext] Zurich Go Club sells go equipment if you go to their meeting place. They have both books and equipment, including some second hand stuff from the club if you're short of funds. Their collection of books is nice.
