Default Re: College Textbooks

Oh I forgot to add. That by buying used on line (utilizing bestbookbuys.com) and then checking prices and reselling, sometimes, I've only lost $10 on the book. Definately worth to shop around.

Armywife is totally right about the time of year. To get the best price, start shopping for books as soon as you register, they're usually the cheapest. Otherwise if you wait till after weeks into the semester, the price will drop, but you've also missed out on having the book. The next best time to buy, is at the end of the spring term for next fall. How many college students think that far ahead?
