West's Business Law text book...$145. Thought I'd be slick and go to Amazon...$142+shipping...BASTARDS!
I've done that every semester of college. Luckily, I've had scholarships, stipends and my money to apy for them. The only redeeming value is the fact that return money is a bonus to th wife and I at the end of the year.CW said:Yeah I had to drop $600 on books for 18 credits and it only gets worse after this year.
buy as many as you can and sell them to everyone in the class for $50 eachRamsey said:dropped about 350 this semester, only 12 hours. my brother did manage to find one of his on amazon for 76 cents, opposed to about 125$ new.

"Return money" ?? That's what the bookstore pays at the end of the semester for the books? $80 for a 'used' book and IF they even buy it back I'm lucky to get 10% in return. It's quite a great scam they've got going there...Fergie said:I've done that every semester of college. Luckily, I've had scholarships, stipends and my money to apy for them.
