A good place to buy books
I really don't want to get raped buying my books for this quarter. Last quarter it cost well over 400 bucks, this quarter it'll be less but the funds are considerably less this year... So is there a good place online to buy college books from?

half.com
amazon.com
booksamillion.com
Go to the bookstore at your campus and get the ISBN number and go to these websites and enter the ISBN.
I saved over 200 dollars.

Thanks Cody. Just gotta find those ISBN codes, they're not on the school'* website, so I have to go into columbus to get them 
. It looks like I'll be saving a ton of money, though! Thanks!

I had good luck with www.alibris.com back in the day. I dont know how well their prices compare to other online retailers, but I know its cheaper than brick and mortar stores.
