$180 textbook in new condition, purchased new last August....was just offered $30 for it from the college bookstore :mad:

ripped it out of the guys eager hands and said I'm not giving you that book.

WTF? The class is still in session using the same textbook, and I know it goes on everywhere the same but sheesh....damn that hurts

just do it like me and dont buy any textbooks.

everything i need to know is on the professors' powerpoint slides, althugh they do take questions out of the book sometimes but i wing it and manage to get a B in all my classes. works like like a charm.

Your book does not exist in the Amazon.com database so you probably copied the ISBM# incorrectly. You could have at least written down a title. :rolleyes: Otherwise you could probably sell it for a nice price on Amazon. That's what I do.

Jutst set up a sellers account, post your listing, the buyer pays for shipping and Amazon takes a 10% commission. TADA!

Heh. I sold that exact same book for $50. And I bought it used for about $100 in near perfect shape. :thumbs:

I opened it a couple times for the open-book final and browsed through a couple other things. Very well written text.

So DON'T BUY NEW BOOKS!! Just buy used ones and resell them.
