What's the GBP1.99 sourcing fee? Are they being run by a cut price
airline?

Clicking the link alongside the sourcing fee, labelled "learn more"

Additional Books Handling Charge

Some books take more time, effort or expense than others
to locate and obtain through our usual suppliers. In these
cases we add an additional handling charge of £1.99
(excluding VAT) per item to the cost of the order.

The books I have bought via abe came from real second hand bookshops.
