<p>Anyone have experience with these? From textbooks.com it says you can buy the ebook for physics 101, but then again, i've never done this, and i'm thinking i might like to write in the book. are they annoying to download? it says that you only get one download and non-refundable, so if the computer ****s up...</p>

<p>Also, anyone have experience with textbooks.com in general? How do their prices compare to Kraftees? At first it seemed really good, but then thinking about it, I always buy used and end up finding the best looking books, but for all I know, since I can't see the book beforehand, textbooks.com might give me a crappy used book (yeah, i know they will say the condition - "like new" "good" but that is pretty subjective). Plus, if I don't like the book, sending it back may be a hassle, especially if i need that book for a class. For Kraftees, the only thing that really sucks is the return policy, but I won't buy books from them where I may drop the class anyway. Plus I can't find the Physics 101 ISBN, and I don't wanna guess, even if I'm given the author and for all I know shipping may be delayed - how are they usually on shipping time?</p>

<p>Lastly, does anyone know how Orgo, Orgo Lab, and Physics 101 books tend to run in terms of price at Kraftees? What is included in the organic chemistry "5 pack?" Thanks!</p>

<p>I did an ebook for an oceanography class....I wasn't a fan. I like to highlight and scribble...plus I hate staring at my computer screen for too long.</p>

<p>Not to mention the internet has everything. That is, if you don't mind screwing publishing companies out of the obscene amount of money they make off students by putting out a new edition every year.</p>

<p>What are the titles/authors of the books? I feel like taking up my own challenge of finding them now, hah.</p>

<p>These are the books for my math and physics classes. Do I really need to buy all of them? If so, what would be the cheapest option?</p>

<p>Har, I found all those books (aside from the lab manual, asuming it's cornell specific).</p>

<p>Calc is 11th Ed
Physics is 12th Ed</p>
