Hey guys. Any one know of any great cheapass books stores for some college books? My colleges book store is a joke kinda like the ebgames of book stores! :) Used books for two dollars off of new. Yeah right. Books are so expensive and half tthe time I don't even use them! One books is 155.00!

Any one know where you can get some good books for cheap?

Where is the best place to resell these crap books after you have taken the class?

Thanks! Help spread the cheapass ways to a broke college kid!

You can get 25% off book pruchases on ebay with the new Paypal coupon. That is if it's your first time buying books on ebay and you feel like dealing with ebay.
 
I trying ebay right now. Don't think i'll win it though. Its more like a future place to buy from so I wouldn't have to wait for bidding then shipping. I was mostly liking for newer type books not the ones that are wrote on and falling apart like ebays. But thank you.
 
Amazon wants a 138 for new thats two bucks cheaper then my book store! Then you gotta pay for shipping too. Come on why in the hell is a 9th edition book this expensive? They didn't make enough from the first 8 years of the book. I think im going to make textbooks for a living! Every year you can just change the order of the chapters and get the same for it! Kinda like Madden!
 
I've used www.collegebooksdirect.com. They have a decent inventory of used books and they ship orders out pretty fast. I go back to school next Wednesday so I couldn't mess around with sites such as half.com or amazon (to many people I know ordered from there and got the wrong book or the wrong version from what they ordered).

My book total for this semester was well over $600.
 
Yeah i start Monday and need the book pretty quick as well. Oh well guess I gota shell out the money. No more cheap games for me till chirstmas! Then we might get some good bb and cc deals again!

while that site is real good... its technically illegeal since your are buying books printed in different regions,, and regions have their own prices set to be sold for that price in that area. I know many people that buy thier books from there and its a lot cheaper,, and i haven't heard of a single case were anybody got into trouble. I don't think there are any actual disclaimers,, so i don't really think its wrong...
 
[quote name='Mr_hockey66']Hey that bigwords is great thanks so much. They have my 140 dollar book for 69.99 bucks! I guess I can get a few more cheapy games![/quote]
Yeah, both of those sites just scan the internet for the best deal. Glad I could help :).
 
half.com has been pretty good to me. So far i havent bought any books this sem but i usuually get pretty good deals. I just sold 3 books though and its totalled like $160
 
The only book-buying site you'll ever need.

www.addall.com

Searches over 35 bookstores for new and used books by author, title, ISBN, or keyword and returns results by price with links to each including shipping info.
