<p>I go to SmartCollegeStudent.com which searches for the best price online and then I buy it. I was surprise I was able to get them for 40% of the bookstore price</p>
<p>What about you?</p>
<p>amazon.com :)</p>
<p>why would you be surprised, book stores rip students off, its why they are there. They aren't honest</p>
<p>I second amazon.com</p>
<p>amazon marketplace, ebay, half.com, abesbooks among many places that carry books. I hate books that are only offered at the school bookstore though. Huge ripoff.</p>
<p>if your school is big enough and has P.H.D students there may be a campus printing/publishing place. Sometimes these places have printed copies of text books. and these printed copies are really cheap and usually black and white. Though they are much cheaper. another option is to check the publishers website and see if a e-book is available. If ya don't mind, you can get a e-book for usually 70% cheaper than the actually text.</p>
<p>not the bookstore hehe, i have spent 10 dollars there this semester and that is IT! Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, and selling them/buying them from other kids.</p>
<p>do colleges prefer the editions of textbooks? Like my bro has his old 4th edition Cambell biology book, is it okay?</p>
<p>it's like new too, since he didn't really read that much of it</p>
<p>amazon is good for buying, but when you sell books there, they take so much of your money away in fees it's sick</p>
<p>I search on google and use the cheapest website I find.</p>
<p>I saved $52 on my math book using half.com. 'Twas shipped directly to my mailbox and was done all in the comfort of my own home. Try it today; you'll be pleased.</p>
