Buying Textbooks

**Red_Lizard2** · 08-04-08, 12:08 AM

so, i'm looking for books to get for school this semester but of course the book store tries to rip you off on the books so any suggestions on good places to buy cheap textbooks online? i found new on Amazon for about the price of the used ones at the bookstory but still thinking i can find even better deals

Try looking up some facebook groups for your college, they might have a textbook selling topic/group. I know mine does.
