Where can i get textbooks for cheap?

Asked by ppcakes (457points) April 1st, 2008

i have tried half.com, amazon, and textbooksrus. all of them are still giving me, even for the used books, really high prices, the used being almost just as much as the new, having maybe 10 dollars off then i have to pay shipping which puts it back on. If anyone has any better sites they use please share.

Hmmm, everytime I have been to half.com and others have told me about buying from there, it is always a really good price deduction

How did you capitalize that W?

It’s 11:50p.m. where I’m at, so be on the look out, for ten more minutes!

APRIL FOOLS!

no but really, the only button broke on my computer is the caps lock button. lets hope it never gets pressed because it will be stuck forever. i’m just terrible at capitalizing things and putting in apostrophes. you know things grammar nazi’s hate.

I liked betterworld.com. The book I bought was cheap and the condition was as described. You can grab the ISBN number from amazon and search there.
