<p>So, does anyone else act like a nerd by buying some 'interesting' used but bargain editions of textbooks?</p>
<p>Recently guilty of buying Principles of Biochemistry 4th Ed for only like $13!! Bargain :D As well as Principles of Chemistry by Munowitz >.< </p>
<p>I mean I might take Biochemistry class in the future but I wanted to start reading the material for fun and I just saw it for a complete bargain.</p>
<p>^No. That’s a waste of money.
What I do is I go to the free section of my local state u’s bookstore and pick up older edition books that people left. Much cheaper than Amazon.
Wow, I’m a nerd and a cheapskate.</p>
<p>haha yea. I did that with my University Physics textbook that I got for like $7.</p>
<p>i bought a $5 organic chem book off amazon - including shipping. i use it as a paperweight.</p>
<p>I’m guilty of buying them when they aren’t even that cheap. >.< But it’d be impossible for me to take every class that I have my heart set on taking, so I buy the book and learn as much of the material as I can anyway.</p>
<p>I’m guilty of this, I own two old Chemistry textbooks which I bought at a used book store. They were pretty cheap and I collect books so it worked out.</p>
<p>I bought a textbook for kindling. Does that count?</p>
<p>Wow. You guys are nerds. The only used books I buy for fun are novels.</p>
<p>no lol…nerds</p>
<p>Nope, 'cuz I ain’t got it like that (monetarily speaking, de claro.)</p>
<p>I bought my econ textbook $140 off the original price! And it’s brand new! And yes, I’m a dork, so I will start reading it as soon as I get it.</p>
<p>

<p>This .</p>
<p>^Really Plattsburghloser, no favorite CS/engineering book that’s better than the one’s at uni? </p>
<p>Vinnyli, there’s a free section at your uni bookstore? That’s SOOO cool XD</p>
<p>Well call me a nerd then because I have been doing this for quite a while. I have a big interest in Psychology but the closest class I can take at my school is intro to psychology but unlikely that I will be taking it. Anyways have I have a bunch of different psychology, sociology, some nursing textbooks, and math textbooks.</p>
<p>I collect math and biology textbooks. Used to collect Psychology, but stopped that one since it stopped interesting me. I think next I’m going to start getting some of the more obscure classes, if I can find them cheap. (Like, Women’s Studies and all those other ones that I’ll probably never be able to take.)</p>
<p>I’ve downloaded textbooks before because I’m a habitutal collector of 1s and 0s.</p>
