Textbook Prices - Nodean - 04-27-2006
I just signed up for a summer school anatomy class and the textbook was $150! I almost passed out. I haven't bought a textbook in awhile so I was shocked. Anyone know of any cheap internet sites that they have had luck with? I'm not against buying used if its in good condition.

Anyone know of any cheap internet sites that they have had luck with? I'm not against buying used if its in good condition.Try cheapestbookprice.com or addall.com, which are sort of online bookstore search engines to find the best price for a particular book. The best search method is by typing in the ISBN number to get the specific edition you need. Personally, I usually find the best prices at half.com and amazon.com; sometimes I search eBay, but shipping prices are usually higher than the other two.

I like:

A google search with any book title will give you multiple references.
Check Amazon's used book stores, half.com and the Harper Collins College Outline Series has been an inexpensive dependable way to supplement Instacert. I also like Idiots and Dummies books.
I have two kids in college and they buy all their books used on-line.
