Buy Used Books For Work at a low price  Uploading ....Scoring cheap used text books for school is one of the easiest and best things to do in order to save hundreds of dollars a year. Want to know the secret? Read on.
First: Find out the titles for any books required for your class. You can usually find this in the syllabus for the class, asking the professor, asking a fellow student, or checking a local campus bookstore.
Second: Find out if you can use a previous edition of the book. Ask the professor. Most editions of books have very little changes from one edition to the next, so if you can get the 11th edition when the professor recommends the 12th edition, I highly recommend to get the cheaper one (I am a A+ student with a 3.92 GPA, trust me on this)
Third: Go to Amazon.com and shop around. If you look closely at the different editions of books, you notice you can get one edition below for pennies on the dollar of what the newer edition cost.
The number one website for buying used books is Amazon.com. Simply search for a book by title, author, or even category! Once on the book page, you will see a number of used and new prices. Most times, you can simply click "Add to Cart" and get books up to 90% off from Amazon, simply checkout (remember: orders over $25 get free shipping!). Other times, you can click the "used from xxx" and get it directly from a seller.
When buying directly from a seller, remember that you must check their feedback and see how other's rate that seller. You ideally want to buy from a 5 star seller with at least 100 feedback rating.
Other sites such as Barnes and Noble and Half.com also sell used books, but Amazon has proven to have the best track record out of the three.
So remember: Most newer editions of books have minor gramatically differences (and when I say minor I mean literally I have seen books with identical writing and the only change was the author inserting the word "and" and "the" into a sentence...) with a major price tag.
