    Amazon almost always sells cheaper textbooks. Go to the site, type in the name of the text, and almost always you’ll find reference to X number of used copies available. Click on the link, and you’ll see. Jack

    half.com. But be prepared to wait a month for it to arrive. I’m not exaggerating. Kaonashi

    Amazon is very reliable. But before you make your purchase, make sure the edition you’re going to get is the right one. A lot of professors changes the edition every year to prevents people from buying their textbook 2nd hand. I guess that’s how they make their money. CATCATMEOWMEOW

    Ask around your school, and check the school bulletinboards. Try to buy books “off-season” if at all possible. Treat your books gently, and you can resale them again when you are done.

    BTW…I bought a $180.00 A&P book last spring. I used it one semester, and then when I went back to take A&P II, the bookstore told me I needed to buy the new version (another $180.00.) It doesn’t end there, AFTER I opened my new book and CD, I went to class. The professor said that we could use any A&P book that we want to use. ineedonebuddy

    I have used textbookx.com in the past. They are reliable and fast. Decent prices, and more important, free shipping at $49. You can get the free shipping link here:

    No coupons at the moment, but they do occasionally have them. Last ones available were about 1 month ago. iamqueww

    Textbook411.com is the best place to buy textbooks, it instantly compares the price of any book at over 20 of the top online bookstores (amazon, half.com, eBay, textbookx, valore books, and tons of others)

    I always save atleast 1/2 on my books with Textbook411 kellywoo22

    You can try using. They let you trade textbooks as well as buy and sell them. It’s reliable, and free, so you get better deals than ebay or amazon. whoawhoawhoa
