I would second Stephanie's recommendation of http://www.addall.com which functions as as a metasearch in that it includes abebooks, alibris, Amazon, Powells, Strand, half, and a number of others, including various non-US instances of these which can be great for UK materials or other European titles depending on what floats your boat. ... As to your criteria, Jonathan, The ISBN search works well in print books and for used ( insofar as that is helpful in the used/antiquarian marketplace) The design is clean IMO. Prices - no extra bonus there- the prices are just that, exclusive of shipping. But you can sort ascending and descending...
