Where can my ds buy used college books?
Does anyone know of websites online where my ds can buy used college books? Thanks, Kelly
I had good luck with ecampus.com.
My DS had the best luck in finding them at his own campus' bookstore...however, since he was an animation graphic/game programming major, most of the books were new and not available used, or it was software he had to buy. If you know the name of the text book AND which edition is needed, do a "froogle" search and see what pops up
I just ordered some for dd here. http://www.fes.follett.com/
eBay has tons! Some auctions, some buy it now.
be careful though, and make sure it is the same isbn # that his teachers are requesting.
Sarah pre-ordered her fall semester books, last spring already. That gave her the best chance to get first dibs on the used books. Also, when we drop her off on Labor Day, they will all be boxed up and ready to pick up, at the bookstore. This year, her chemistry class is actually a year-long course, so for second semester, that is one less book to buy.
Thanks everyone, I will pass the info onto ds!
