College Text Books

What’s the most you ever spent on college text books?
In my first year of college I spent almost $600 on text books.
I’ve seen friends have to pay much more than that for books for one semester. It’s extortion! This is where real world education comes into play. Students have to apply their economic creativity to drop the book prices to as low as possible. I can say I have done that for two semesters and have actually netted a small profit after reselling online. Never buy your books in a college bookstore unless they will match online prices if you can provide proof. Shop online for books. Shop early! If you buy books when everyone else is shopping then you will pay a higher price. If possible, check out the book editions. It’s cheaper to use an earlier edition that may just have had a few new pages added. Check your college library. I was actually surprised when I did find some books available there. If your class is using ordinary classic subjects like english lit’ or classics, it’s very easy to find full text of plenty of works online for zero cost output. If your prof’ is only going to use a portion of a text, don’t buy the entire book, just borrow or copy it. If these scheming lowballing “educators” want to continue to price gouge students let them understand that you’re up to playing their dirty game by reintroducing some healthy economic competition back into the college book buying process.
