My college days are over. I worked through both undergraduate work, as well as a Master's. When I was in college, you could only get your books through the campus bookstore. You, of course, could sell them back the following quarter.....at a fraction of what you paid. Or, you could buy used from the get go....and ultimately not get much money back at all when you were done with the book.
It never occurred to me there could be the option to rent textbooks? What a great idea! I recently found out about a great company, Campus Book Rentals. They invited me to share the advantages of their service and website. Here is a summary of the perks involved:
-Save 40-90% off of bookstore prices
-Free shipping both ways
-Yes, you CAN highlight in the textbooks
-Flexible renting periods
-Easily search by author, keyword, title, or isbn
-If you are unhappy with your rental, you can return within 30 days risk free
