For all of you who are buying books for classes next semester...
    #5064907 -

Please don't go to the bookstore at your college to buy books. They mark up the prices extremely high.

What you need to do is go to the bookstore, write down the ISBN number of the book you need, (as well as the title, author, and the edition to make sure you get the correct book) and go to www.half.com.

I just bought a book for $1.17 that cost $58.50 in the bookstore.

Adding up the entire cost of books that I'd pay for in the store, it would be:

$378.75 :blush:

And using Half.com, the grand total for 4 books came to:

$160.23 :grin:

Yeah I've been using Half.com for about 2 years now and I've saved a TON of money on books.

btw, for those of you who don't know what an ISBN number is, it's the number above the barcode on the back of the book.
