<p>Should I buy books before classes start tomorrow, or should I wait until after each class just to make sure I get the right one?</p>
<p>I’d say wait. The professors won’t expect you to have the textbooks already, and you don’t want to get the wrong textbook.</p>
<p>I usually try to buy my D books from Amazon. The pricing is usually better then the bookstore and the RETURN POLICY is definitely better. The BOOKSTORE printed return policy says that you can return the book by the “ADD/DROP” date which intuitively suggests that you are fine until the Drop class date – but that is NOT the case. You can only return the book for a refund by the ADD class date which is pretty much just a week after classes start. So, I order from Amazon and get a minimum of a 30 day return period no questions asked and certainly no arguments. Good Luck this year.</p>
