Archaeological publishers Oxbow Books have lots of bargains for sale on their website and in their printed Bargain Catalogue 2009 (available from them by post). From the former: Astrology in Medieval Manuscripts by Sophie Page. Assesses the role of astrology in medieval society as a whole, in agriculture, politics, medicine, weather forecasting, cosmology and alchemy, accompanied by many lovely illustrations. 64p, many col pls (British Library 2002) Pb was £7.95 now £3.95 http://www.oxbowbooks.com/pdfs/catalogues/bn79/uk_bargains.pdf From the latter: Die Magische Gemmen im Britischen Museum by Simone Michel Usually £195, marked down to £49.95. Arthurian Myths and Alchemy by Jonathan Hughes, marked down from £30 to £9.95. Introduction to Greek and Latin Palaeography by Sir. E. M. Thompson, H/B, was £26 now £15. I've only had a quick browse, so there may be more material of alchemical interest.
